GHF whistleblower says boy killed by Israel just after he collected aid
Al Jazeera
Amir walked 12km to receive a meagre allotment of aid, only to be fatally shot, Anthony Aguilar says.
Barefoot and dressed in tattered clothes, Amir approached a GHF aid distribution point in Gaza desperate for help. He had walked 12km (7.5 miles) to collect food. And moments after the frail boy received his small packets of aid, the Israeli army opened fire.
That was the account Anthony Aguilar, a United States Army veteran, gave during a recent interview. The former GHF contractor has been warning the world about the US- and Israeli-backed aid scheme.
On Thursday, outrage over the GHF and the accounts Aguilar has been sharing with US lawmakers and journalists continued to grow.
In an interview with Israeli activist Offir Gutelzon and journalist Noga Tarnopolsky on the UnXeptable podcast this week, Aguilar recounted that Amir approached him as a crowd of aid seekers began to depart an aid distribution site.
Aguilar shared photos of the boy he identified as Amir – a small child that looks to be no older than 10 or 12.
