6/26 (Online) 1pm - Deconstructing the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation: Deadly Humanitarian Aid (DAWN)

Thursday Online Discussion — Deconstructing the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation: Deadly Humanitarian Aid

Join DAWN Thursday, June 26, 1 PM ET, for an online discussion on the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) and deadly humanitarian aid. For nearly a month GHF has largely undercut existing UN systems handling the humanitarian response in Gaza. But little is still understood about the Israeli and U.S. government-backed organization today, amid near-daily massacres of aid seekers by Israeli forces outside of GHF's designated aid locations.
