In a press conference on Friday, U.S. ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee declared that Israel would not be involved in distributing aid in Gaza, though it would assume a security role.

Despite the ongoing aid blockade imposed by Israel since March, Ambassador Huckabee clarified that the delivery of aid is not contingent on achieving a ceasefire in the region.

The announcement comes amid heightened tensions and ongoing humanitarian challenges faced by Gaza residents.
