"The head of a US-backed private humanitarian organisation that is tasked with distributing aid in #Gaza using an #Israeli-initiated plan resigned on Sunday, saying that the operation could not fulfil its mission in a way that adhered to “humanitarian principles”.

Executive director Jake Wood announced his resignation in a statement from the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), adding fresh uncertainty to the operation’s future."
