World Central Kitchen founder Jose Andres tears into the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation after footage of Palestinians overrunning the latter’s newly established aid distribution sites goes viral.
“The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation has left Palestinians without food. The people that created it are selfish,” Andres writes on X, lamenting that the new initiative has left Palestinians “really hungry.”
GHF has agreed to work within strict Israeli restrictions in order to try and deliver aid in a way that doesn’t allow its diversion by Hamas.
The Emirati-backed WCK has refused to cooperate with GHF, whose own CEO resigned earlier this week after losing his patience with Israeli restrictions.
Israel has allowed GHF to run just four aid distribution sites for all of Gaza’s population of two million.
Israel blocked aid from entering Gaza for 78 days before allowing it start trickling in again last week.
Andres says WCK’s system of community kitchens are the way that aid should be distributed. “Palestinians feeding Palestinians.”
