๐บ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ฑ GHF Under Fire in Gaza
Johnnie Moore, the newly appointed executive chairman of the U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), refused to disclose who funds the group, though he insisted itโs a โprivate foundationโ not funded by Israel โas far as I know.โ
Moore, a former PR advisor to Trump, took over after Jake Wood resigned, citing threats to โneutrality, impartiality and independence.โ
The GHF has faced criticism from the U.N. and global aid organizations for:
โข Operating only 4 aid sites, causing deadly overcrowding.
โข Relying on armed U.S. contractors and Israeli military for security.
โข Allegedly allowing Israel to decide who receives aid, violating humanitarian principles.
โข Being tied to possible Israeli government funding, despite official denials.
Philip Grant of TRIAL International warned that the GHF may be participating in war crimes, especially forced displacement, and called for a Swiss investigation.
The foundation says it served 16 million meals so far, but over 200 people have been killed near its aid sites, according to Palestinian health officials.
Israelโs public broadcaster reported hundreds of millions of shekels may have been funneled to GHF via shell companies. Opposition leader Yair Lapid raised similar concerns.
Moore deflected, saying criticism was โabsurdโ and blamed the U.N., accusing them of being armed and complicit.
