Hamas IS still active in Gaza and fighting for power….
Gaza IS political and military quagmire for ALL Involved….
With NO real solution in cite….
The bloody chaos that has overtaken food distribution in Gaza has worsened with more mass casualties among Palestinians trying to reach humanitarian assistance, while the US-Israeli organisation tasked with aid deliveries claimed that five of its local workers had been killed by Hamas.
The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) claimed on Thursday that a bus full of its Palestinian staff was attacked by Hamas at 10pm local time on Wednesday, with at least five deaths and other workers taken hostage.
It was not immediately clear why the organisation was attempting a night-time delivery. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have warned Palestinians not to approach food distribution points before 6am. The GHF reportedly claimed on its Arabic Facebook page that it had carried out a 3am food distribution.
The GHF did not respond to inquiries about the night distribution but its newly appointed chair, the evangelical preacher and Trump adviser Johnnie Moore, said on social media: “These dear people were murdered by Hamas because they just wanted to feed their people. They were not militants. They were humanitarians, many of them young people.
“The principle of impartiality does not mean neutrality. There is good and evil in this world. What we are doing is good and what Hamas did to these Gazans is absolute evil.”
Hamas has not commented on the GHF claims, but said it had killed 12 members of the Israeli-backed Abu Shabab group after detaining them overnight. There have been increasingly bloody clashes in recent days between Hamas and the militia led by an Israeli-backed local warlord, Yasser abu Shabab. Reports from Khan Younis in southern Gaza said Abu Shabab members were publicly executed overnight in the city.
Israeli forces killed at least 60 Palestinians in Gaza on Wednesday, nearly two-thirds of them as they were seeking food from GHF food points, according to local health authorities….

The IDF said on Thursday morning that 56 humanitarian aid trucks from the UN’s World Food Programme (WFP) had crossed into Gaza the previous day through the Zikim crossing at the northern end of the occupied territory. The food was allowed in “with the approval of the political echelon and on the recommendation of the security authorities”, an IDF statement said.
The WFP confirmed it had been able to get some food into Gaza over the past few days but not to distribute it in any organised way. After several incidents of looting, the aid agency has been driving trucks into populated areas and allowing local people to unload the food themselves….
