The Israeli army claims that the senior leadership of Hamas has been significantly dismantled, with only three commanders from the terror group’s October 7th general staff still alive. The assessment, released as part of an ongoing review of the war's progress, suggests that the chain of command which orchestrated the October 7 attacks has been largely eliminated. With over 75% of the Gaza Strip now under Israeli control, and the network of Hamas tunnels heavily targeted, Israeli defense officials believe the group is being pushed into a corner. Some in Israel’s security establishment now speculate that if no external ceasefire agreement is reached, pressure from within the Gazan population itself may eventually force a change. Deception, Tragedy & Truth: Gaza Updates, Pallywood Lies, and Rising Antisemitism | MidEast & Beyond: [52 minutes] The World Food Programme (WFP), a United Nations agency, confirmed on Wednesday that “hordes” of Palestinians stormed one of its warehouses in Central Gaza, storming it for food and leaving at least four dead. The horrifying incident followed U.N. officials condemning the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), a non-U.N. organization backed by America and Israel, for successfully distributing food and other critical aid in Gaza while circumventing attempts by the genocidal terrorist organization Hamas... The GHF has opened two distribution centers in Gaza this week which have, according to the group, successfully distributed over 800,000 meals without Hamas intervention — and despite Hamas actively warning Palestinian civilians not to take the food. The WFP incident reportedly occurred on Wednesday at a food warehouse in Deir Al-Balah. The U.N. group claimed that the food in question was “pre-positioned for distribution” but did not explain in its statement how it failed to appropriately hand it out, claiming it was “still confirming details.” Reports from the ground described a scene in which Palestinian civilians “burst into the U.N.’s World Food Program warehouse Wednesday in the central Gaza Strip, pushing each other in the shadow of the cavernous facility’s main door.” “Others ripped off pieces of the metal walls in an effort to get inside,” the Associated Press detailed. The GHF distribution continued without incident on Wednesday despite Hamas actively threatening civilians, urging them to starve rather than take the aid. Local reports indicated that Hamas set up roadblocks to stop civilians from reaching distribution sites. Hamas terrorists plainly warned civilians not to “fall into the trap” of receiving food. The U.N. — and in particular its Palestinian agency, the U.N. Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) — has faced years of mounting evidence of collaboration with Hamas, tolerance for jihadist employees, and corruption and theft of its aid. A report by the watchdog group U.N. Watch published in May 2024 revealed that UNRWA employees were stealing humanitarian aid in Gaza to sell at high prices... A report in April found that Hamas was also looting and stealing cash from U.N. programs intended for civilians, controlling “distribution” of this aid by demanding a kickback to the jihadist group.
