Images shared by the Gaza Humanitarian Fund show Gazans picking up food from the Swedish Village distribution site near Rafah’s Tel Sultan neighborhood, which it says is being shut down in favor of a new site closer to Rafah.

Scenes from near the unfinished “Kuwaiti” hospital along the Egyptian border show relative disorder as civilians open boxes and fill bags to carry, but the area appears relatively uncrowded.

A video clip shared by the US- and Israeli-backed organization shows a staffer with a camera photographing about a dozen smiling and waving Gazans.
