According to the English department of webangah News Agency, citing Mehr News Agency, Anthony Aguilar, a former contractor for the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, told Al Arabiya TV that the way queues are managed for humanitarian aid and the crowding at distribution points is unethical and violates human principles. Amid a severe food crisis in the region, women and children are suffering from hunger.
He added that locating aid distribution centers within conflict zones breaches international obligations to protect civilians. Continuing this practice could be considered a war crime.
Aguilar also criticized Steve Gutman’s recent visit-the U.S. special envoy to the Middle East-to Gaza. He stated: “Gutman’s recent visit was a staged media event while people waiting for aid were being killed.”
The contractor further pointed out that some American citizens are directly involved in these hostilities, which places additional responsibility on the U.S. government.
Aguilar concluded by affirming his commitment to conveying the truth despite receiving threats: “Despite threats over revealing these realities, I will uphold my humanitarian duty to report them.”
