“Baseless and fabricated”: Hamas rejects US claims of aid truck looting in Gaza (en.royanews.tv)

Hamas issued a strong rebuttal on Sunday to recent claims by the US Central Command regarding the alleged “looting of a humanitarian aid truck” in Gaza, describing the allegations as “baseless and fabricated.”

Hamas said the claims are being used to justify reductions in already limited aid and distract from the international community’s failure to end the siege and alleviate civilian suffering.

“No international or local organization, nor any driver involved in the convoys, has filed a complaint about such an incident,” Hamas said, adding that this proves the US scenario is fabricated to support siege policies.

Hamas also criticized US drones for failing to record the daily crimes of the Israeli Occupation

The fact that the "looting" thing is still used as a reason to not deliver aid is insane.

Like, is Hamas drinking baby formula? And if they are, wouldn't the solution be to overwhelm the area with aid to ensure some of the aid gets through to starving babies?

Like, the insanity that this narrative is still going on.

I guess what's happening is Hamas is using the baby formula to confuse the IDF into thinking they are babies. The IDF loves killing babies and of course goes to target them. But, "oh no! The baby is actually Hamas!" And the IDF soldier is killed. It's really big brain work being done here by Hamas.

if Israel had genuine concerns about the distribution of aid, it wouldn't be closing the traffic of aid.

they are just sprouting rethoric to justify their famine

Yes so true, Hamas is not a terrorist organization and is to be trusted completely.

What does that label mean to you? "A terrorist organization"?

Like, how do you define it? Is it just through an appeal to authorities or governments that declare them as such?

Or do you have specific acts you would define as terrorist?
