The US confirm the private firms’ plan to assist in gas, despite the UN concern

The United States has confirmed that the new system of humanitarian aid to Palestinians in Gaza through private companies is being prepared when the Israeli blockade continues for the third month.

US Ambassador to Israel Mike Hakababi said “shopping centers” protected by security contractors will provide food and other materials more than one million, initially, as part of Hamas’ assistance.

He denied that Israel would take part in assistance or distribution, but stated that his forces would provide the perimeters of the centers.

There are details about the contradictory plan in which the UN agencies are repeated that they will not cooperate because it seems to be “weapons”.

“We will not participate,” said the UN Coordination Cabinet Press, Jensa Sea, said the BBC in Geneva, “Only in efforts that are in line with our principles.”

He added: “There is no reason to create a system that disagrees from DNA of any fundamental humanitarian organization.”

Since the beginning of March, Israel has disconnected all supplies from reaching gas – including food, shelters, medicines and fuel – leads to a humanitarian crisis for its 2.1 million residents.

The third cuisine in Gaza – one of the last lives of the territory – was forced to close over the last two weeks because of the lack of food and fuel, Ocha reports.

Among them were the last two field kitchens of the World Central, an American charity, which provided 133,000 meals daily before the ingredients ended on Tuesday.

Prices for the main food also took off to local markets, with 25 km (55 pounds) flour, which is now sold for 415 dollars (313 pounds) in gas -sitting -30 times compared to the end of February, says Ocha.

Hakababi told reporters in Jerusalem that US President Donald Trump saw gas assistance as an urgent cause and that his team was instructed “to do his best to accelerate it and get humanitarian aid as promptly as possible.”

Israel and the United States accuse Hamas of distracting help. “Previous actions often met with Hamas, who stole food designed for hungry people,” the ambassador said.

The UN and other agencies say they have strong surveillance mechanisms, and when gas assistance has grown into gas, cases of robbery have ceased largely. The World Health Organization states that none of its medical means was plundered during the war.

Trump’s administration is trying to set up a new initiative to assist the President next week to wealthy Arab Gulf countries that could help her finance.

It states that a non -governmental organization was created and that assistance will not be under Israeli military control.

Hakababi said: “Israelis will participate in ensuring the necessary safety because it is a military action zone.

A recently registered Gaza Humanitarian Fund (GHF) was created.

On the 14 pages of the GHF document, which is seen by the BBC, promises to create four distribution sites, issuing kits for food, water and hygiene, initially for 1.2 million people – less than 60% of the population. It states that the project aims to eventually reach all the gas.

The document aimed at potential donors states that “the months of the conflict have destroyed traditional newspapers in the newspaper.”

This continues: “GHF was created to restore this life through an independent, strictly audited model that receives help directly – and only for those in need.”

The document states that GHF is “guided by the humanitarian principles of humanity, neutrality, impartiality and independence.”

It is said that its board and advisers are included in the former Central Center Executive Director of the World, as well as the former US leader of the UN World Food Program David Basley – though he has not yet been confirmed.

Full information about how the help mechanism will work on the ground is not given.

Gaza’s war was caused by attacks under the leadership of Hamas on Southern Israel on October 7, 2023, which killed about 1,200 people and more than 250 hostage. About 59 are still in captivity, up to 24 of which are considered alive.

Israeli military campaign has killed more than 52,700 gas, mostly women, children and the elderly, the Ministry of Health Hamas reports.

Last Sunday, the Israeli security office approved the strengthening of the military offensive against Hamas into Gaza, which could provide for violent displacement of the population to the south, fixing the entire territory for an indefinite period and controlling assistance.

It quickly met with a wide international condemnation. Many of the Israeli allies noted that it was linked to international law to allow the free passing of humanitarian aid.

The British Minister of the Middle East Hamish Socaler said on Monday that the British government is seriously concerned that Israeli announcements could lead to a 19-month gas, which is a “new dangerous phase”.

As for the help, he said: “As the UN said, it is difficult to understand how, when it is implemented, the new Israeli plan to assist through private companies will meet the humanitarian principles and comply with the scale of the need. We need urgent clarity from the Israeli government in its intentions.

“We must remember what is being said. These humanitarian principles are important for every conflict worldwide. They need to be applied consistently in each military zone.”

This week, the US Special Messenger in the Middle East Steve Witco, informed the UN Security Council members – which includes the UK – behind the closed doors about a new plan to restore assistance.

Meanwhile, Israeli media reports that Israeli forces have already created distribution centers in Rapha, in the south of Gaza, in the “sterile zone” intended for Hamas’s free presence.

According to the reports, Israel expects that assistance will be distributed to representatives who are safe from each family of gas, who would be allowed to accept supplies only for their relatives. They are only on foot.

It was said that the Israeli defensive institution estimated that the average amount of assistance, which should be distributed at 70 kg (154 pounds) per week.

The Israeli military will eventually be located on the borders of Hubs Sisttiving Hubs, which will allow employees to give food without resorting to the soldiers, the reports said.

Israel and the US claim that the new system will prevent Hamas from being able to steal food for their own benefit. By preventing his access to assistance and participation in the safety of escorts, they hope to reduce the group’s Gazana’s impact.

However, there are basic questions about the expediency of the plan. The current UN system uses about 400 aid distribution points, while the gas situation is now in a crisis point, with warnings that mass starvation is inevitable.

At the UN briefing in Geneva, help officials said they had a “careful analysis” before deciding that they could not participate in the US-Israeli scheme. They said it was not officially represented by the GHF document that is currently being distributed.

James Senior, UNISEF Children’s Agency Press, said the plan that was outlined would lead to more children suffering, not less. He noted that civilians will have to go to the militarized zones to get help, which means that the most vulnerable – children and the elderly – will fight to get there.

He said the decision to find all the distribution points in the south looked like help use as a “bait” to forcibly displacing gas. The UN says 90% of the population was displaced during the war, often many times.

The plan discussed with the UN agencies provides only 60 of the aids that are included every day – much less than they say is needed to meet the growing needs, and the tenth part that took place daily during the recent two -month ceasefire.

Jens Lerc Och said that in short, proposals from Israel “are not found with a minimum bar for fundamental humanitarian support.”

Analysts note that the current deadlock, not only the existential threat to the huge UN humanitarian operation in the Palestinian territory, may have consequences for future work.

If this agreed with the scheme that meets the requirements of the military on the one hand in the conflict, it can give perception of neutrality and impartiality of the UN, and establish a dangerous precedent that leads to similar requirements in other areas of war where it works.

The UN and other help agencies also say that they currently have tons of stocks, which are gathering near the border crossings ready for entry when Israel will allow it.

Without the end of the blockade, it is expected that the risk of hunger will increase.

In Jabalia, in Northern Gaza, which was already the focus of Israeli military operations against Hamas, Palestinian families told BBC about their growth when they expected food production in Takia or Community Kitchen, which turned into a chaotic fight.

“Every day I come here and wait for the culinary pot to feed my children,” said Umm Ahmed. “The pot does not fill us. We suffer two months. There is no flour and nothing. Open the boundaries so we can eat properly.”

She said she would not fulfill Israel’s efforts to force her to move south to Rafa to get help.

“We don’t have money for transportation, we don’t have money for food!” she exclaimed. “I don’t want to evacuate from here, I would die rather than leave.”

“Takia is our last source of food,” said Mohammed, who was waiting for five hours in the queue. “My wife is pregnant and sick and I can’t deliver her to the hospital. How should I get to Rafa?”
