US EditionUN humanitarian office rejects Israeli plan to shut down current aid system in Gaza
- On May 5, 2025, displaced Palestinians at Gaza's Nuseirat refugee camp rushed to receive bread provided by a charity while the area remained under Israel's complete blockade imposed in early March.
- The blockade aims to pressure Hamas to release hostages and follows Israeli claims of sufficient food, though reports conflict on aid diversion.

- Jan Egeland of the Norwegian Refugee Council emphasized that they refuse to participate in any plan that violates core humanitarian principles, rejecting the proposed aid distribution system.
- The UN warns the proposal will deepen Gaza’s humanitarian crisis by blocking aid to vulnerable groups, escalating starvation and suffering under ongoing border closures.
