GHF Delivers 3.1 Million Meals, Criticizes UN for Pushing False Information

The U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation announced that it distributed 3.1 million meals in four distribution sites to Gazans in the Gaza Strip on Monday, bringing the total number of meals to more than 26 million.

The announcement follows the organization’s resumption of operations on Sunday after a one-day pause due to security concerns.

GHF also stated that three of its members sustained “minor injuries” related to Iranian attacks on Israel. All three received medical treatment and were diagnosed with concussions. Otherwise, “aid distribution at all sites proceeded without incident,” the organization stated.

“Once again, I am extremely proud of our team as they safely opened the four sites today despite the unprecedented series of conflict events in the region,” stated John Acree, GHF interim executive director.

“While we are now navigating daily Iranian missile attacks and falling flak from counter weapons, our team still arrives at the loading docks to stock our trucks and continue our mission of feeding the people of Gaza,” he continued. “They are our sole customers and stakeholders whom we strive to serve every day.”

The organization also said media organizations and the United Nations “continue to push false information” from the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry.

“We have read false media reports again today attributing a violent incident that occurred in northern Gaza in proximity to a U.N. aid convoy that was being targeted for looting and falsely claiming it was located near a GHF distribution site,” the organization wrote. “GHF does not have a distribution site in Gaza City or northern Gaza at this time. We also do not deliver bulk flour. This is clearly false information.”
