A senior State Department official admitted Monday “there are no guarantees” that millions of dollars being sent by the United States to help Palestinians would not end up in the coffers of the Hamas terror group.
“We’re going to be working in partnership with the United Nations and the Palestinian Authority to kind of channel aid there in a manner that does its best to go to the people of Gaza,” the anonymous official said during a briefing previewing Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s visit to the Middle East this week. “I’m also sure that the Government of Egypt will have some role in that.
“As we’ve seen in life, as we all know in life, there are no guarantees,” the official added, “but we’re going to do everything that we can to ensure that this assistance reaches the people who need it the most.”
In a statement announcing Blinken’s trip, President Biden noted that the top diplomat would discuss “the coordinated international effort to ensure immediate assistance reaches Gaza in a way that benefits the people there and not Hamas.”
Israel has accused Hamas of using aid meant to reduce humanitarian needs and bolster the Gaza Strip’s infrastructure for military purposes.
