"Israel Accuses UNRWA of Allowing Aid Accumulation Amid Gaza Conflict"
Israel's COGAT accused UNRWA of failing to distribute humanitarian aid to Gaza, sharing a photo showing a build-up of aid on the Gazan side of the border. UNRWA has been criticized for years and has come under particular scrutiny since employees were connected to attacks on Israel. COGAT's post comes amid accusations that Israel is obstructing the flow of humanitarian aid into Gaza, while a recent report warned of imminent famine in the region. Israeli officials maintain that the issue is not a lack of aid being allowed into Gaza but rather its distribution once inside the strip, pointing to Hamas's commandeer of aid delivery. To bypass the bottleneck, foreign nations have begun dropping aid packages over Gaza from the air and initiating projects to deliver aid by sea.
