UN Chief Guterres Criticizes US-Backed Gaza Aid as Inherently Unsafe Killing Over 400

News summary

United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres sharply criticized a U.S.-backed aid operation in Gaza, labeling it as "inherently unsafe" and stating that it is resulting in deaths. He emphasized that the search for food has become a deadly endeavor for Palestinians, with over 400 killed trying to access aid since Israel lifted its 11-week blockade in May. Guterres condemned the militarization of aid and displacement caused by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), which the UN has refused to cooperate with due to concerns over its neutrality. He blamed Israel, as the occupying power, for strangling UN-led humanitarian efforts and called on it to facilitate aid delivery throughout Gaza. Guterres urged for political courage to establish a ceasefire, highlighting that aid workers themselves are facing starvation amid these challenges. The U.S. and Israel have supported GHF, which operates with private U.S. security firms and has distributed millions of meals, but the UN warns that the controversy and operational risks are harming humanitarian outcomes.
