Exclusive: For roughly 100 days, Thomas says he faced harsh detention conditions, despite agreeing to deportation

In Gaza, aid is currently distributed to civilians through two systems: a militarised system operated by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), referred to here as the ‘GHF model’, and a civilian system composed of UN agencies, other international aid organisations, local government, and civilian security, referred to here as the ‘UN model’. The GHF is a US- and Israeli- backed organisation founded in the US in February 2025. Its background and operations remain unclear. The civilian aid system in Gaza has been systematically targeted and dismantled by Israel since October 2023, and today it approaches the point of collapse.

Five months into its unprecedented dismantling of foreign-aid programs, the Trump administration has given the order to incinerate food instead of sending it to people abroad who need it. Nearly 500 metric tons of emergency food—enough to feed about 1.5 million children for a week—are set to expire tomorrow, according to current and former government employees with direct knowledge of the rations.

The biscuits, which cram in the nutritional needs of a child under 5, are a stopgap measure, often used in scenarios where people have lost their homes in a natural disaster or fled a war faster than aid groups could set up a kitchen to receive them. They were stored in a Dubai warehouse and intended to go to the children this year.
