Summary
The head of the World Food Programme, Cindy McCain, refuted Israel’s claims that Hamas is stealing humanitarian aid in Gaza, emphasizing that the rush for supplies is unrelated to organized crime. With 500,000 people facing severe food insecurity, McCain stressed the urgent need for the international community to pressure Israel to open aid routes, as the closures since March have worsened living conditions. Since October 2023, Israeli military actions, supported by the U.S., have resulted in significant casualties, further exacerbating the humanitarian crisis.
