Two Americans working at a humanitarian aid distribution center in Khan Yunis were injured in an attack on the facility on Saturday, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation said in a statement.
The attack was part of “explicit plans to target American personnel, Palestinian aid workers, and the civilians who rely on our sites for food. Today’s attack tragically affirms these warnings,” GHF wrote.
The individuals were injured when two assailants attacked the facility with grenades. They are currently receiving medical treatment and are in stable conditions, the statement said.
No local aid workers or civilians were harmed, GHF confirmed.
The IDF confirmed that it received an update from GHF on Saturday morning that terrorists had launched grenades into the aid distribution site in Rafah while Palestinian civilians were still present. Two American workers were wounded as a result, the military confirmed.
Following the explosion, soldiers evacuated the injured for medical treatment.
