Statement From Senior Hamas Official Dr. Bassem Naim:

Engineering Extermination through “Humanitarian” Death Traps

In the context of the ongoing Israeli aggression against the Gaza Strip, the new Israeli mechanism for distributing humanitarian aid serves to intensify policies of starvation and societal targeting, transforming aid into death traps.

Reports indicate that this mechanism—administered through the U.S.-backed “Gaza Relief Organization”—forces civilians to move toward dangerous military zones in order to access aid, thereby placing their lives at grave risk.

This policy has led to the martyrdom of no fewer than 75 Palestinian civilians over the past week while attempting to reach aid distribution points, including 27 martyrs in Rafah on June 3 and 31 martyrs in a similar incident on June 1, in addition to dozens of injuries. (Different investigation and eye witnesses have proven that the shooting against the innocent civilians is without any doubt from the Israeli side)

This mechanism is deemed an instrument of “genocide engineering” and a flagrant violation of international humanitarian law, whereby aid is being used as a means to facilitate ethnic cleansing. It also grants Israel a role in the distribution process, thereby undermining the neutrality of humanitarian operations. The United Nations has rejected this plan, affirming that it contravenes fundamental humanitarian principles and endangers the lives of civilians and humanitarian workers.

We hold the Israeli occupation fully responsible for the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza and for the lives of all Palestinians killed at distribution centers. We call upon the international community to act immediately to halt these criminal policies and to ensure the safe and impartial delivery of humanitarian aid under United Nations supervision, free from any military or political interference.
