US democratic representatives demand urgent investigation into work of Gaza Humanitarian Foundation

SANAA, July 30 (YPA) – 93 Democratic members of the US House of Representatives called on Secretary of State Marco Rubio to open an urgent investigation into the structure and operation of the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, which currently manages aid distribution sites in the Gaza Strip.

In an official letter, they expressed their deep concern that the foundation has become the main or sole entity responsible for delivering aid, despite its lack of the required competence and experience.

They emphasized that the safe and effective delivery of humanitarian aid to Palestinians is a moral obligation and necessary for Israel’s security as well as for achieving progress on the prisoners’ file.

The representatives strongly criticized what they described as the lack of transparency and oversight of the foundation, noting that the approved distribution model, based on first-come, first-served access, has caused chaos and casualties.

They also demanded disclosure of the foundation’s sources of funding and details of its contracts with security companies and aid suppliers.
