US EditionHumanitarian group pauses aid trucks bound for Gaza, citing Israeli restrictions
- On May 29, 2025, Human Concern International in Ottawa announced it would halt the dispatch of 17 trucks packed with aid supplies destined for Gaza due to concerns about the Israeli-controlled aid distribution system.
- The pause followed Israel's introduction of a new Gaza Humanitarian Foundation system, which aid groups say politicizes and restricts aid access mostly to southern Gaza after a nearly three-month blockade.
- Each truck contains 2,240 boxes providing a family of five with minimum weekly calories, while Israeli soldiers recently fired warning shots at crowds near aid sites amid reports of desperation.
- Save the Children reported children scavenging for food and water on Gaza streets, and the United Nations has withdrawn from the new distribution system over safety and politicization concerns.
- The suspension underscores humanitarian risks from the politicized aid process, increasing pressure on governments like Canada to act amid growing fears of famine and rights violations in Gaza.
