الحكومة الأمريكية لم تجد أي دليل على سرقة واسعة الانتشار للمساعدات المقدمة لغزة من قبل حماس، متناقضة بذلك مع مزاعم إسرائيلية

A comprehensive internal review by the US Agency for International Development (USAID) found no evidence that Hamas systematically stole US-funded humanitarian aid in Gaza. This finding directly challenges longstanding Israeli assertions that aid is routinely diverted by Hamas, which has been used to justify restrictions on aid entering Gaza. The USAID analysis documented only a small number of incidents, with less than one percent of aid misdirected, and some of these losses attributed to actions by the Israeli military or other actors. Despite these findings, Israeli officials and some commentators continue to claim significant aid diversion by Hamas, while the humanitarian crisis in Gaza persists. The report has sparked debate over the true causes of aid shortages and the impact of ongoing conflict on civilian suffering.
