"According to Israeli estimates, Hamas has been stealing up to 60% of the aid entering the Gaza Strip, and a Channel 12 report last week revealed that the terrorist organization has made at least $500 million in profit off humanitarian aid since the start of the war on Oct. 7..." -JNS

Only a tiny trickle of aid has been delivered to UN warehouses in Gaza. The UN reports that only 10 truckloads of aid arrived on Friday at a World Food Program warehouse in Deir El Balah in Gaza.

On Saturday, only five truckloads of aid arrived at the warehouse. Reuters reports that Palestinians "cleaned out" 11 other truckloads on the way from the pier to the warehouse. There were no deliveries at all on Sunday and Monday.

"They've not seen trucks for a while," a UN official told Reuters. "They just basically mounted on the trucks and helped themselves to some of the food parcels."

How did this happen? Incredibly, the UN didn't think about securing the aid trucks until after the aid had been stolen.

"We need to make sure that the necessary security and logistical arrangements are in place before we proceed," said the UN official.
