Tel Aviv — The head of the United Nations agency supporting Palestinian refugees has condemned a controversial U.S. and Israeli-backed humanitarian organization operating in Gaza, calling it "an abomination" and "a death trap costing more lives than it saves."
The statement from Philippe Lazzarini, commissioner general for UNRWA, criticizing the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) came as the Hamas-run Gaza Ministry of Health said 79 people had been killed in the Palestinian territory over the previous 24 hours, 51 of whom it said had died near GHF sites.
"There is no food. The people have starved to death, and nobody gives a damn about Gaza. Nobody talks about what's happening in Gaza," one man at Gaza's Nasser hospital, where injured people were being brought for care, told CBS News. "Young men in their prime are dying. What brings these youngsters to go to the aid sites? It's hunger. The fire of hunger has ravaged the people."
Another man at Nasser hospital said: "I send this message to the mothers and fathers, not to send their children. Youngsters who are barely 17 are dying in vain, just to get some hummus or a bag of flour to feed their families. The Israeli army lies in wait to kill them as you can see here. Look at the victims here. Most of them have been shot in their heads. This American charity is a trap of those youngsters. Young people in their prime are dying. This is a trap."

"Humanitarian principles must be reinstated," Lazzarini said in his statement. "The humanitarian community, including UNRWA, has the expertise and must be allowed to do their jobs and provide assistance with respect and dignity."
The word that is totally absent from the entire lengthy article is "HAMAS" (and their lies and propaganda).
Only the Blind and Dumb should not see through this.
The death's were from HAMAS terrorists killing Gaza Citizens on way for FREE FOOD. At secure sites.
Hamas has always stolen the humanitarian aid from UNRWA. Yes, there were 3,000 UNRWA (UN*) who were almost all Gaza citizens. The largest number of employees of any UN agency. There were UNRWA employees who took part in the October 7th Invasion and massacre in Israel. FACT.
The UN LIES. HAMAS LIES. Both ARE EVIL!
There is no humanity in either of them.

Aid distribution centers⤵️
➡️As part of the American initiative: aid distribution centers were established in the Gaza Strip, operated by International Aid
organizations, and secured by an American civilian security company.
➡️four aid distribution centers were established in recent weeks, in accordance with the directive of the political echelon and
in close coordination with the United States.
➡️As part of the gradual opening of the distribution centers, two of the centers, located in Tel al-Sultan and the Morag Corridor
in the Rafah area, began operating today (Tuesday) and are distributing food packages to thousands of families in the Gaza Strip.
We will continue to facilitate humanitarian assistance in the Gaza Strip, while making every possible effort to ensure that the
aid does not reach the hands of Hamas.
True That
Mr Lazzarini should figure out where the billions of dollars in food and goods went after it was delivered into Gaza before he blames the ones delivering the food.
That, or Mr Lazzarini is pi$$ed he’s not getting his cut anymore.
EC
Yes, Both.
Spot on.
it has been 3 weeks and men in their prime are starving to death? It takes about 2 months to starve to death.
We were giving citizens free food
The bureaucrats wanted money instead
Why aren’t these Arabs in Cairo?
They could have walked there by now.
There are reports that Hamas has put bounty on the murder of citizens of Gaza going to the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation delivery sites. And on anyone working at the site.
Paid to Kill anyone who tells the truth?
Yes. That is IT.
Hamas and UNWRA both do not want to give up their control and financial gravy train.
“Officials say” = “experts say” = “sources say” = lies.
In her case, I think it just meant that she had noisy sex.
unwra and this POS have NO credibility. Go away.
Of course they lie.
All of them do.
And our MSM (alphabet media) is right in there with the hogs. Pay them and they will project any lie.
Yes. Agree.
Because hamass is a malefactor, any aid delivered to gaza will result in deaths.
The only question is: Whose?
By disallowing hamass hijacking of aid for resale and using the profits to kill Jews, now palestinians die.
If someone must die because the elected leadership of gaza are murderers, let it be the palestinians.
the U.S. should stay in the UN just so it can veto antisemitic and anti-western “resolutions”, but should cut back funding to a mere pittance ...
Egyptians are NOT Arabs. There are a lot of Muslims in Egypt, but there are also a lot of Coptic Christians.
Egypt was an ancient culture, long before Mohamed.
I have old friends in Cairo.
All True.
