"Last night’s ambush was a ruthless assault on those who represent the very best of humanity. These were local aid workers – our colleagues – risking their lives to bring food to those who are starving. They weren’t combatants. They had no political affiliations. They were there to serve their own people, and they were hunted down by Hamas," GHF Executive Chairman Rev. Johnnie Moore told Fox News Digital. "We are heartbroken, but we’re not backing down. We call on the international community to condemn this unprovoked, barbaric attack and start standing with those of us who are doing the work on the ground. We cannot do it alone. All we want to do is feed people. That’s all."
