The attack was part of “explicit plans to target American personnel, Palestinian aid workers, and the civilians who rely on our sites for food,” GHF said.

Two Americans working at a humanitarian aid distribution center in Khan Yunis were injured in an attack on the facility on Saturday, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation said in a statement.

The attack was part of “explicit plans to target American personnel, Palestinian aid workers, and the civilians who rely on our sites for food. Today’s attack tragically affirms these warnings,” GHF wrote.

The individuals were injured when two assailants attacked the facility with grenades. They are currently receiving medical treatment and are in stable conditions, the statement said.

No local aid workers or civilians were harmed, GHF confirmed.

The IDF confirmed that it received an update from GHF on Saturday morning that terrorists had launched grenades into the aid distribution site in Rafah while Palestinian civilians were still present. Two American workers were wounded as a result, the military confirmed.

Following the explosion, soldiers evacuated the injured for medical treatment.

The GHF, an Israeli and US-backed NGO, began operating in Gaza in May to distribute humanitarian aid.

GHF will continue aid distribution in Gaza despite threats, attacks, killings

GHF has disclosed that Hamas had placed bounties on American security workers in the enclave and that 12 of the organization’s local staff members had been murdered in its latest update on the situation in Gaza, while others have been tortured.

“Hamas has placed bounties on both our American security personnel and Palestinian aid workers, offering cash rewards to anyone who injures or kills them.”

In its statement on Saturday the GHF said that it will remain fully committed to its aid distribution mission.

“Attempts to disrupt this life-saving work will only deepen the crisis. We will continue to stand with the people of Gaza and do everything in our power to deliver the aid they so urgently need.”
