A recent internal analysis by USAID found no evidence that Hamas has systematically stolen US-funded humanitarian aid in Gaza, contradicting longstanding claims by Israel and some US officials.
The report, completed in June, states that most incidents of aid theft cannot be definitively attributed to any specific actor, including Hamas. Despite these findings, the US State Department and Israeli officials continue to assert that aid diversion by Hamas is a significant problem, citing other sources and video evidence. The controversy has fueled debate over the distribution of humanitarian aid in Gaza, with some organizations and commentators accusing the UN and others of mishandling or politicizing aid delivery.
The issue remains highly contentious amid the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
