Gaza aid foundation using Israeli food brands, sparking online criticism

The US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation is distributing Israeli food brands to starving Palestinians, according to photos shared on social media of the food packages. 

The fact that the US-backed group turned to Israeli companies for food provoked criticism on social media. 

"Israel is profiting big time from its genocide: the meagre aid packs a few Gazans received today were almost entirely Israeli products with visible Hebrew writing," one social media user wrote on X. 

The food also appears to be low in nutritional value. It includes pasta, white rice and canned food.
