On June 4, 2025, Washington and Tel Aviv handed the “Gaza Humanitarian Foundation” to American evangelical pastor Johnnie Moore, raising concerns due to his support for Israeli aggression and hardline views on Israeli supremacy.

The crackdown on UNRWA and humanitarian groups comes as “Israel” pushes to annex the West Bank under Trump’s administration, part of a broader strategy to dismantle the two-state solution and erase Palestinian refugee rights for good.

In their latest challenge after the devastating 2023 earthquake, relief organizations in northwestern Syria, beyond Bashar al-Assad’s control, answered the pleas of Syrian refugees fleeing Israeli bombings in Lebanon.

The Israeli army withdrew from Al-Shifa Medical Complex, leaving behind enormous destruction and hundreds of bodies scattered inside the hospital and around it.

In light of Russian intransigence in using its veto to prevent the entry of humanitarian aid by the UN to millions of people living in northwestern Syria, alternative efforts continue to secure aid for the people.
