💨 Abstract

United Nations aid chief Tom Fletcher criticized an Israel-U.S. plan for Gaza aid distribution, calling it a "fig leaf for further violence and displacement." The plan, involving private companies, was proposed to address aid theft allegations against Hamas. However, the U.N. insists on independent, impartial aid distribution. Fletcher highlighted the need for aid access across Gaza, warning that Israel's plan would force displacement and make starvation a negotiating tool.
