UN official accuses Hamas of obstructing humanitarian aid in Gaza; Hamas denies the allegations

UN Deputy Special Coordinator Ramiz Alakbarov accused Hamas-linked armed personnel of forcibly entering a food distribution point in Jabalia and a WFP warehouse on Saturday, assaulting two truck drivers. Hamas rejected the accusations, claiming the incident was an official law enforcement operation targeting smuggled goods concealed in aid parcels. COGAT condemned Hamas over the incident, while separately an Israeli indictment against a right-wing activist who blocked aid trucks was rescinded.
