The U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation announced it delivered more than 2.8 million meals on Thursday, bringing the total number of meals to more than 33 million.
All aid deliveries proceeded “without incident,” according to GHF.
“Despite operating in one of the most volatile and complex environments in the world, our dedicated team on the ground continues to deliver life-saving aid to the people of Gaza—safely, efficiently, and without incident,” said John Acree, interim executive director of GHF.
“We welcome collaboration with partners so we can continue to scale our efforts and meet the urgent needs of those we serve,” he stated. “It is our hope that the United Nations and other organizations will join us in this shared mission to feed the people of Gaza.”
“Until then, we remain unwavering in our commitment—delivering food to men, women and children, every single day,” Acree continued.
GHF again denounced “inaccurate news coverage by the international media outlets” for claiming violent incidents occurred at GHF distribution sites when they instead occurred at sites overseen by the United Nations.
“We continue to experience a growing pattern of false information seemingly formulated by the Gaza Health Ministry, an arm of Hamas, and then reported first by Al Jazeera and then echoed by the U.N.,” GHF stated. “It is unfortunate that both organizations, especially the U.N., continue to push false information regarding our operations.”
