A leading UK-based human rights group is preparing to submit a formal complaint to the International Criminal Court, accusing the so-called Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) of direct complicity in war crimes against starving Palestinian civilians.

Mohammed Jamil, director of the Arab Organisation for Human Rights in Britain, stated that GHF operates under the command of the Israeli military and has become a tool of control and repression rather than relief. “Its aid centres have become death traps,” Jamil told Shehab News, “where desperate civilians are gunned down while searching for food.”

The organisation’s complaint to the ICC calls for prosecution of GHF officials under the Rome Statute and urges sanctions under the Global Magnitsky Act for their alleged role in systematic atrocities. Jamil criticised the United Nations for its silence, denouncing its failure to dismantle what he described as a militarised aid scheme serving Israel’s occupation agenda.

Since 27 May, over 500 Palestinians have been killed and thousands injured at GHF aid sites in areas like Al-Rasheed Street, Al-Sudaniya, and Netzarim, locations now associated with mass killings, not relief. Multiple human rights bodies have condemned GHF as unaccountable, unneutral, and operating without UN oversight.

The foundation, backed by the US and Israel, is accused of using aid distribution as a smokescreen for deepening a campaign of starvation and displacement, part of what Palestinians and rights groups increasingly describe as a deliberate policy of genocide.
