Afeef Nessouli, a volunteer with medical aid organisation Glia International, says the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation “has not been able to have a successful distribution of aid” since Israel recently allowed limited aid into the enclave.

Nessouli, talking to Al Jazeera from the town of al-Qarara near Rafah in southern Gaza, said the US-backed aid group has been weaponising food since it started the job.

“It has been an incredibly loud morning [in al-Qarara]. It seems these distribution sites are disorganised and have mal-intent [malevolent intent], to be honest,” he said.

“The GHF has not been successful to this day and has even seemed to target Palestinians when they are extremely hungry as they try to get aid,” the volunteer stressed.
