Overview
- GHF formally closed its Gaza operation six weeks into the ceasefire, having already shut distribution centers when the truce began on October 10.
- During roughly four and a half months in Gaza, the foundation says it distributed more than 187 million free meals and reported no looting of its aid trucks.
- Set up with US and Israeli backing as a temporary alternative to UN-led distribution, GHF says it has been in talks with international organizations and the US-led CMCC about adopting its model.
- UN figures report more than a thousand people were killed near GHF distribution points during its operations, with responsibility contested by the organization and Israeli authorities.
- Heavy rains in late November caused extensive flooding in Gaza’s camps, with the UN reporting at least 13,000 tents damaged and humanitarian needs escalating.
