The US has announced plans to send a team led by Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Ambassador Mike Huckabee to Gaza to inspect aid distribution sites and deliver more food. The visit comes amid international pressure following a starvation crisis, during which over 1,000 Palestinians have been killed while attempting to obtain food, mostly near GHF distribution sites. A senior Hamas official criticized the visit as a "photo opportunity," while a former Palestinian health minister in Gaza, Basem Naim, accused US companies of overseeing "death traps." The US Agency for International Development has found no evidence of widespread theft of aid by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), which was created following Israeli allegations of aid diversion.
