The Washington Post Refutes Trump's Claim of $60 Million Aid to Gaza - Jordan News
The Washington Post Refutes Trump's Claim of $60 Million Aid to Gaza The Washington Post has debunked former U.S. President Donald Trump's recent claim that the United States sent $60 million in humanitarian aid to Gaza, reporting that the actual amount delivered was only $3 million. اضافة اعلان In a report published Saturday evening, the newspaper stated that the amount of aid sent to Gaza in recent weeks is far less than what Trump publicly declared. According to regional sources and statements from the U.S. State Department cited in the report, only $3 million was transferred to the Gaza Humanitarian Relief Foundation, an organization that operates under the supervision of the U.S. and Israel. Trump had claimed: 'We sent $60 million in food aid to Gaza.' However, the report clarified that this figure was inaccurate, and that the State Department corrected the number twice, confirming that only $30 million was allocated—of which just 10% (i.e., $3 million) has actually been disbursed. Throughout the past week, Trump repeatedly stated that the U.S. had delivered $60 million in aid to Gaza, expressing frustration over what he described as a lack of gratitude from the Palestinians. Meanwhile, on Saturday, Gaza's Ministry of Health reported that 1,422 Palestinians have died from starvation while waiting for aid since May 27, with over 10,000 injured. (Source: Anadolu Agency)

6 civilians killed in Israeli occupation's bombing of west Gaza City
Ammon News - Six citizens were killed and others injured early Saturday morning in an Israeli airstrike west of Gaza City. Medical sources reported that four citizens were killed and others were injured as a result of the Israeli airstrike on an apartment building in the Rimal neighborhood. The same sources announced the killing of Mohammed Riyad Foura and his wife, Jumana Aref Foura, when debris from a building collapsed on their tent after it was targeted in Gaza. They indicated that a number of those injured, waiting for aid, arrived at Al-Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza City after being directly shot in the Al-Waha area. Meanwhile, Israeli fighter jets are launching a series of airstrikes targeting various areas of the Shuja'iyya neighborhood east of Gaza City. Since October 7, 2023, the Israeli occupation forces have launched an assault on the Gaza Strip, resulting in the killing of 59,676 civilians, the majority of whom were children and women, and the injury of 143,965 others. The occupation also commits horrific massacres against those waiting for aid, who are exposed daily to the risk of death due to indiscriminate fire and direct targeting. The number of Palestinians who have been killed since the implementation of the aid distribution points mechanism on May 27, 2005, has exceeded 1,000, with hundreds more injured. Thus, the aid distribution centers of the Israeli-American "Gaza Humanitarian Relief Foundation," a UN-rejected organization, have become traps for mass killings, in addition to the deliberate violation of citizens' dignity and their forced displacement amid catastrophic humanitarian conditions.

Gaza Government Media Office: "Zionist enemy turns aid distribution points into death traps"
Gaza - Saba: The Government Media Office in Gaza stated that the Zionist enemy has committed a new and horrific massacre against Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip, as its forces opened direct fire on starving civilians gathered to receive aid at so-called "aid distribution centers" in Rafah. In a statement issued on Wednesday, the office reported that the Zionist enemy killed ten starving civilians and injured 62 others at these so-called "aid distribution centers" in Rafah over two days. The statement noted that the brutal crime occurred during peaceful gatherings of civilians driven by dire need and extreme hunger to seek aid at these locations, which were supposed to provide humanitarian assistance. Instead, they became death traps under enemy gunfire, as part of a suspiciously engineered project managed by the American organization called "Gaza Humanitarian Relief Foundation" (GHF). The office emphasized that this crime, repeated for the second consecutive day, reflects an unprecedented moral , humanitarian collapse and constitutes a full-fledged war crime under international law. It stressed that the killing of civilians is undeniable proof that the so-called "aid distribution zones" are nothing but a false humanitarian cover for racist security schemes aimed at humiliating, starving, and even killing Palestinians—if necessary—on the threshold of obtaining bread. The statement held the enemy forces fully and directly responsible for cold-bloodedly firing on the starving civilians. It further accused the American organization GHF, managed by the enemy, of providing logistical and political cover for this massacre and acting as an executive arm in the "buffer zones" project, which replicates "racial isolation ghettos" and lacks the slightest elements of neutrality or humanity. The office called on the free international community, as well as Arab and Islamic nations, to take immediate action to break the siege, reject all forms of complicity with the enemy, and establish independent and safe relief channels that preserve human dignity and prevent further massacres. It warned that continued international silence on these crimes amounts to shameful complicity and perpetuates a culture of impunity that has long encouraged the enemy to carry out massacres. The statement also reminded that deliberate starvation constitutes a form of genocide under Article II of the 1948 Genocide Convention. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print
