US State Department plans $500m for Gaza Humanitarian Foundation despite internal controversy

The US State Department is considering providing $500 million to the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), an organization criticized for its lack of neutrality. The money would come from USAID, but the proposal faces opposition over concerns about violence near distribution centers. The FHG recently began distributing aid in Gaza, where the majority of the population faces the risk of famine. Although the US and Israel say they do not fund FHG, both have encouraged working with the organization.
