Brussels, MINA – The European Union has condemned the situation surrounding a food distribution center in Gaza operated by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), calling it “unacceptable.”

“Regarding the humanitarian foundation GHF you mentioned, there is a distribution center in Gaza, and what is happening around that center  the situation is unacceptable, and the violence must stop immediately,” said Anouar El Anouni, spokesperson for the European Commission, during a midday briefing in Brussels on Friday.

El Anouni stated that the EU is not involved in the initiative. The remarks were reported by Anadolu Agency.

Reiterating the EU’s long-standing position, El Anouni stressed that humanitarian aid must not be “politicized or militarized,” and should be delivered in line with core humanitarian principles under UN coordination.

“As the European Union, we are not funding this initiative. We are not financing it, nor are we cooperating with it,” he added.

In recent days, hundreds of Palestinians have been killed while attempting to access desperately needed humanitarian aid at sites associated with GHF, a US-based organization reportedly backed by Israel. [Nia]
