US-backed aid scheme in Gaza hires public relations firm staffed by former Obama, Biden staff: Report
The scandal-plagued Gaza Humanitarian Foundation's military contractor, UG Solutions, has hired the crisis communications firm Seven Letter, which is run by former communications staffers in the Joe Biden and Barack Obama administrations, independent journalist Jack Poulson revealed on Friday.
This comes amid the revelation that nearly 800 Palestinians have been killed at GHF aid points in Gaza since it began operations in May, the United Nations said.
Eyewitnesses have said both the Israeli forces and American military contractors manning the sites fired on them, and two resignees from UG Solutions confirmed those accounts to the Associated Press. Haaretz has also published testimony from Israeli soldiers who were ordered to fire on aid seekers.
