Hamas Plotting Attacks On US Aid Sites In Gaza, Leaked Messages Reveal

Hamas and its terror affiliates in the Gaza Strip plan to attack American aid distribution centers, Telegram messages confirmed by a senior U.S. official show, threatening to draw the United States into direct conflict with Palestinian militant factions.

“Resistance security is authorized to firmly confront anyone who cooperates with the enemy or its agents, and agents and mercenaries will be legitimate targets,” Hamas affiliates said in a statement issued late Sunday to “Palestinian resistance factions” active on Telegram, a social networking site terrorist groups regularly use to coordinate their activities.

The terrorists directed their threats at the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), a joint U.S.-Israeli aid effort formed in February with private contractors to replace the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), which is known to collaborate with Hamas.

A senior U.S. official confirmed that the Trump administration has monitored the situation to protect Americans working with GHF in Gaza to deliver humanitarian aid.

“These reports of Hamas threatening the GHF and its workers, many of whom are Americans, are deeply concerning,” the senior administration official told the Washington Free Beacon. “Hamas should think twice. We are watching closely.”

The Palestinian terrorist groups claimed that GHF centers established throughout Gaza “have become traps targeting our hungry people. Their goal is to end UNRWA’s mission and turn the Palestinian cause into a humanitarian one to facilitate forced displacement and ethnic cleansing in Gaza.”
