More than 100 aid organizations accuse Israel of "weaponising aid" by imposing strict registration rules on groups delivering humanitarian assistance to Gaza and the West Bank, risking staff safety and blocking critical aid. These rules require donor and staff vetting and can deny registrations based on past boycott calls or perceived opposition to Israel. As a result, millions in aid remain stuck in warehouses, and most aid isn’t reaching Gaza civilians amid ongoing conflict and famine.
Israel denies the accusations, citing security concerns. Meanwhile, Israel’s far-right finance minister supports expanding settlements near Jerusalem, further undermining Palestinian statehood ambitions amidst growing international tension.
