Over 100 groups blast Israel's weaponisation of aid
agencies More than 100 aid groups have accused Israel of obstructing life-saving aid from entering Gaza, resulting in vast quantities of relief supplies remaining stranded in warehouses across Jordan and Egypt as more Palestinians starve. Aid trucks have massed on Gaza's borders amid Israel's blockade of the famine-stricken territory, and new rules are being used by Israel to deny the entry of food, medicine, water and temporary shelters, the groups said in a joint statement released on Thursday. 'Despite claims by Israeli authorities that there is no limit on humanitarian aid entering Gaza, most major international NGOs [nongovernmental organisations] have been unable to deliver a single truck of life-saving supplies since 2 March,' the groups said. 'Instead of clearing the growing backlog of goods, Israeli authorities have rejected requests from dozens of NGOs to bring in life-saving goods, citing that these organisations are 'not authorised to deliver aid',' the groups, which include Doctors Without Borders (known by their French acronym, MSF) and Oxfam, said. Relief organisations that have worked in Gaza for decades are now told by Israel that they are not 'authorised' to deliver aid due to new 'registration rules', which include so-called 'security' vetting. Hospitals in Gaza are now without basic supplies as a result, and children, the elderly and those with disabilities are 'dying from hunger and preventable illnesses', the statement continued. Bushra Khalidi, Oxfam policy lead, said her organisation has more than $2.5mn worth of humanitarian aid supplies that 'have been rejected from entering Gaza by Israel'. MSF's emergency coordinator in Gaza, Aitor Zabalgogeazkoa, said the restrictions on aid are part of Israel's militarised distribution of relief supplies, spearheaded by the notorious GHF. 'The militarised food distribution scheme has weaponised starvation and curated suffering. Distributions at GHF sites have resulted in extreme levels of violence and killings, primarily of young Palestinian men, but also of women and children, who have gone to the sites in the hope of receiving food,' Zabalgogeazkoa said. At least 859 Palestinians have been killed attempting to access aid supplies around GHF distribution sites since May. The more than 100 relief organisations that signed the statement have called for pressure to be exerted on Israel to end its 'weaponisation of aid', for Israel to end its 'bureaucratic obstruction' and for unconditional delivery of life-saving humanitarian aid to Gaza.
