A series of coordinated attacks by Israeli settlers on multiple days targeted Jordanian trucks carrying humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip, resulting in the destruction and looting of supplies, including bags of wheat flour. During one incident, a settler was reported laughing while looting the aid. These incidents occurred as the Gaza Strip faces severe food shortages, with the local population on the brink of starvation. The attackers, described as settlers from terror outposts in the southern West Bank, were reportedly supported by Israeli police during the raids.
