Jake Wood, a U.S. Army veteran, says he's resigning from leading the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. In a statement, he said it's not possible to implement the plan while also strictly adhering to principles of humanity and neutrality. The plan, backed by the U.S., is supposed to replace how food is delivered in Gaza amid rampant hunger.
It's come under criticism from the UN and aid groups, who say the program would limit civilians' access to aid and serve Israeli military goals. Israel says the program will keep aid away from Hamas, concentrating aid mostly in southern Gaza, with Israeli soldiers guarding nearby. The U.S.-backed aid group says it will maintain humanitarian principles and will begin delivering aid in Gaza Monday.
