Two US aid workers were wounded in a “targeted terrorist attack” by Hamas at a food distribution site Saturday morning in southern Gaza.
The US- and Israeli-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation said two terrorists ran into a crowd of civilians at an aid center in Khan Younis, and tossed Iranian-made grenades at the workers, who were “highly decorated American veterans.”
“Hamas has openly threatened GHF workers, put bounties on their heads, and murdered 12 of our Palestinian staff. Now they’ve made good on their threat to target Americans,” the relief organization claimed on X.
“For weeks, we warned this would happen. . . . Today, Hamas followed through by attacking American veterans with grenades as they delivered food.”
The workers targeted Saturday are receiving medical treatment and in stable condition, the GHF said.
No other aid workers or civilians were harmed in the terror group’s attack, the group added.
The Israeli military has also accused what it called “terrorist organizations” of sabotaging aid distribution in Gaza.
The privately run foundation, which began distributing aid in May and has the backing of the Trump administration, employs private US military contractors.
