Hamas terrorists could be seen in recent videos riding on top of the humanitarian aid trucks as they were driving into Gaza, fully armed and pointing their weapons at civilians in the street below.
Other reports in recent weeks have raised the widespread concern that those aid trucks — which are supposed to be delivering food, medicines, and other supplies to civilians — were at risk of being confiscated by Hamas and never being delivered to the citizens of Gaza.
“Hamas gunmen on top of aid trucks that have entered the Gaza Strip shoot at Palestinian civilians,” Joe Truzman, a “research analyst focusing on Palestinian armed groups and non-state actors in the Middle East,” captioned the video he posted on X.

Aviva Klompas shared the same video, adding, “This is outrageous. The world demands that Israel send humanitarian aid into Gaza for Palestinian civilians and as quickly as it’s sent in, it’s stolen by Hamas. Here you see their gunmen standing on top of aid trucks aiming their weapons at people on the street.”
UNRWA, the United Nations Agency for Palestinian Refugees, called for additional aid to Gaza on Monday, saying, “Too many people haven’t eaten now for two, three days in the #GazaStrip @UNRWA colleagues are doing everything they can with what little they have – but food, water and fuel are being systematically used as weapons of war in #Gaza. Hunger stalks everyone.”

“@UNRWA is complaining about the lack of food and water in Gaza. They conveniently leave out that on multiple occasions Hamas has been caught stealing the humanitarian aid. Why doesn’t @UNRWA speak to their Hamas friends about getting aid to people in Gaza?” Chaya Raichik asked.

“It would probably help a lot if Hamas didn’t literally keep stealing aid truck after aid truck instead of letting people use the aid,” John Hawkins agreed.

Other reports have shown that when civilians attempt to rush the aid trucks — in an effort to get food and water before Hamas terrorists have the chance to steal it — gunmen open fire on them.
“Today in Gaza: Residents ambush the aid trucks entering the Rafah crossing to get food and water before they reach the Red Crescent warehouses, where they claim aid is distributed only to ‘close associates,'” Yoni Michanie posted on December 4. “Hamas operatives opened fire to keep them away.”
