IDF source says Gaza Humanitarian Foundation building new distribution site in Rafah

The US- and Israel-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation says it distributed almost 29,000 boxes of food today.
Almost all of the aid was distributed at the two GHF sites in southern Gaza, with only 1,300 boxes given out at the Wadi Gaza site in central Gaza.
The organization says it has delivered over 1 million boxes of food since it started operations in late May.
The GHF is building a new site in Rafah, an IDF source tells The Times of Israel.
GHF says its boxes contain enough food for 5.5 people for 3.5 days, but the contents are dry food products that require preparation elsewhere in war-ravaged Gaza, where community kitchens and cooking supplies are limited.
