Jake Wood, executive director of the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, resigned Sunday, hours before a new aid program was to launch. His resignation follows concerns raised about the foundation's independence and ties to Israel. Wood cited the impossibility of upholding humanitarian principles while operating under the current circumstances. The program, intended to replace the existing Gaza aid system, has faced criticism from the aid sector for its untested nature and involvement of private contractors, including one run by a former CIA officer.
