Gaza humanitarian group is a 'distraction' from what is needed, UN says
- On May 27, UN officials criticized a new US-backed Gaza aid distribution system as a distraction from urgent needs amid ongoing Israeli restrictions.
- The new system aims to separate aid from Hamas, which Israel accuses of diverting supplies, while Hamas denies these claims and asserts it protects aid convoys.
- Over 3,000 trucks carrying food and soon-expiring medicines queue in Jordan and Egypt, awaiting Israeli clearance to enter Gaza after an 11-week blockade partially lifted recently.
- UN spokesperson Jens Laerke stated the aid is being "cherry picked" and does not match needs, calling for reopening all crossings to end the current partial blockade.
- The UN warns that continued restrictions and diversion of focus to the new distribution system risk depriving Gaza of desperately needed aid amid growing famine concerns.
