The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) has said it’s distributing food again at its sites in the enclave after the US and Israeli-backed group suspended operations yesterday, claiming two US contractors were hurt in an attack at one of its sites.

“All we know from yesterday was that operations were suspended at four of its sites. And now, all of a sudden, there is a statement that appears on their website [that services have resumed],” said Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud, reporting from Gaza City.

Mahmoud said most people here in Gaza are “off the grid, without reliable internet access”. “Relying solely on updates posted on a website is ineffective when social media is far more accessible,” he added.

At least 750 Palestinians have been killed by attacks targeting the aid distribution sites since May 27.
