In a devastating incident, eight Palestinian workers affiliated with the U.S-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) were killed in an ambush that left many others injured.

Despite the violence, the GHF remains determined to continue its humanitarian mission. The interim director, John Acree, emphasized their resolve to provide vital food supplies to Gaza's residents.
