The UN and aid agencies have criticised the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation after chaotic and deadly delivery.
Gaza has been under total blockade by Israel for nearly three months.
Aid agencies have been stopped from delivering the most basic of supplies, leaving 2.3 million people starving.
Now, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation is delivering food packages, but it is backed by Israel and the US. Its first attempt turned into chaos.
The foundation has also faced strong criticism from the UN and other aid agencies. They say it does not follow humanitarian principles and appears to be “weaponising” aid.
So why has Israel decided to let in some aid, yet only under an agency it backs?
