"USAID Contractor's Death in Gaza Sparks Internal Protest and International Outrage"

The killing of Hani Jnena, a USAID contractor, along with his wife and two children in Gaza has sparked internal protest and frustration among USAID officials, who are urging the Biden administration to pressure Israel to limit civilian casualties. The conflict in Gaza has resulted in the deaths of hundreds of humanitarian and development workers, including 135 United Nations relief workers, making it the deadliest conflict in the organization's history. Aid groups such as Save the Children have also suffered losses. USAID officials are calling for restrictions on military assistance to Israel and criticizing the lack of action from the White House. The White House claims to have raised concerns with Israel and has pushed for the establishment of a system to protect aid workers, but airstrikes in supposedly safer areas and communication blackouts have hindered their efforts.
