(Worthy News) – Residents of the Gaza Strip were seen celebrating the arrival of humanitarian aid on Wednesday, as the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) distributed more than 14,500 food parcels across two aid centers. In videos released by GHF and circulated on social media, some Gazans even expressed gratitude to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and U.S. President Donald Trump for the assistance.
One clip posted to TikTok showed a Gazan saying, “Well done to whoever brought us this—whether he’s a Muslim, infidel, Arab, foreigner or American.”
According to GHF, the aid boxes—each designed to sustain 5.5 people for 3.5 days—accounted for approximately 840,000 meals. The foundation said it plans to open additional distribution sites in the coming weeks.
Wednesday’s effort came after a chaotic night, when one center’s equipment and leftover supplies were looted. Despite the delayed start, both locations resumed operations without further incident. However, shortly after distribution began, a false report—allegedly spread by Hamas impersonators—claimed that GHF had suspended operations due to unrest. GHF denied the claim, calling it “fake news” propagated by a counterfeit social media account.
That same evening, a violent incident erupted at a Hamas-run warehouse near the al-Maghazi refugee camp. Hundreds of Palestinians stormed the facility, reportedly seizing large quantities of flour. Hamas gunmen opened fire to disperse the crowd, resulting in five fatalities. Video footage from the aftermath showed empty shelves and chaos inside the looted facility. Observers say the incident underscores Hamas’s declining grip over the population amid the ongoing humanitarian crisis.
Meanwhile, Israel’s Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) confirmed that vaccines were transferred into Gaza this week via the Kerem Shalom crossing. The shipment included 15,050 vials of pneumococcal vaccine—enough for 75,250 people—and 10,550 vials of diphtheria vaccine, sufficient for 105,500 people.
At the White House, President Trump and special envoy Steve Witkoff announced new U.S. efforts to expedite food deliveries to Gaza. “We’re getting food to the people of Gaza. It’s been a very nasty situation,” Trump told reporters.
Witkoff added, “We are on the precipice of sending out a new term sheet… I have some very good feelings about getting to a temporary ceasefire and a long-term resolution—a peaceful resolution—of that conflict.”
As aid trickles in and tensions flare, the scenes from Gaza reflect both the fragility of the situation and a rare moment of public gratitude that transcends political boundaries.
