Two American war veterans involved with the U.S.- and Israeli-supported Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) sustained injuries during an assault while they were providing aid to Palestinians. The injured veterans are currently undergoing medical care and are reported to be in stable condition. According to GHF, these Americans are “highly decorated” for their service.

GHF has consistently highlighted credible threats from Hamas, which included clear intentions to attack American workers, Palestinian aid staff, and civilians who depend on our locations for sustenance. “Today’s assault sadly confirms those warnings,” stated the organization on X.

GHF vowed that it was still committed to the mission of delivering aid to Gazans even in the face of violent attacks.

IDF International Spokesperson Lt. Col. Nadav Shoshani expressed, “The Hamas terrorist faction and other extremist groups in Gaza persist in their attempts to undermine and disrupt the humanitarian aid distribution at the sites and en route. IDF forces ensured a secure evacuation for additional medical treatment. The hostile actions of Hamas and similar groups in Gaza continue to endanger the lives of Gazan civilians.”

GHF slammed the international community over its silence on the threats and violence against its aid workers.

“For weeks, we warned this would happen. We asked the aid community to condemn threats. They stayed silent. We asked the media to stop laundering Hamas lies. They kept printing. Today, Hamas followed through by attacking American veterans with grenades as they delivered food. The silence is deafening. At what point is allowing Hamas to terrorize aid workers and run a propaganda campaign through Western media no longer acceptable?”

The attack comes just one week after the organization said that Hamas put bounties on the heads of its workers, American and Palestinian alike. According to GHF, Hamas was offering money to anyone who killed or injured one of the organization’s aid workers.

“We are aware of credible reports that Hamas is openly targeting the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation and those who work with us. According to these reports, Hamas has placed bounties on both our American security personnel and Palestinian aid workers, offering cash rewards to anyone who injures or kills them,” GHF told Fox News Digital.

“The targets of Hamas’ brutality are heroes who are simply trying to feed the people of Gaza in the middle of a war.”

As of July 4, GHF said it had delivered 60 million meals since it began distributing aid in May.
