The IDF reports that terror operatives threw two grenades at a humanitarian aid distribution center in Rafah this morning after an aid delivery operation, appearing to confirm a previous statement by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.
Civilians were still present in the area at the time of the attack, the military says.
According to the GHF, which operates the facility, one of the grenade explosions wounded two American humanitarian workers. IDF forces coordinated and secured the safe evacuation of the injured for further medical treatment.
The military condemns the attack, saying terror groups in Gaza “continue to sabotage the distribution of humanitarian aid” and are “cynically harming the Strip’s residents.”
