A: Hey there! Did you catch the latest news?

B: Nope, what's up?

A: There's this US-backed private group called Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) delivering aid to Gaza. But their head resigned before things got started.

B: Wait, so they're giving aid but the boss quit? That sounds strange. Why did he resign?

A: Well, apparently it's because the organization couldn't stick to the principles of impartiality and independence. The aid is being distributed under strict control without going to Hamas, which seems to be causing some issues.

B: Oh wow, that sounds complicated! And the United Nations isn't happy about this initiative either... they think Israeli authorities are trying to stop the UN's own aid distribution efforts.

A: Exactly! And despite all this, the violence in Gaza continues. The death toll has reached over 54,000 since the conflict started in October 2023. Quite alarming, isn't it?

Israeli media have reported that a US-backed private humanitarian organization is delivering aid to the Gaza Strip. But the head of the organization reportedly resigned before the full-fledged operations began.



The reports say the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, or GHF, started distributing supplies on Monday.



The organization is operated by private firms and other entities, and its supplies are reportedly distributed under strict control without going to the Islamic group Hamas.



The United Nations has criticized the initiative, saying the Israeli authorities are trying to halt the existing distribution mechanism by the UN and other humanitarian aid groups.



Reuters news agency reported that the head of the GHF stepped down on Sunday, saying the organization could not adhere to the humanitarian principles of impartiality and independence.



Israeli forces are continuing their intensive offensives in Gaza.



Local health authorities say the death toll has risen to more than 54,000 since the current conflict began in October 2023.
