In the President’s post, he affirmed, “I just announced $100 million for humanitarian assistance in Gaza and the West Bank. This money will support over 1 million displaced and conflict-affected Palestinians. And we will have mechanisms in place so this aid reaches those in need – not Hamas or terrorist groups.”

This significant commitment underscores the U.S. government’s dedication to addressing the humanitarian crisis in the region and supporting those affected by the ongoing conflicts in Gaza and the West Bank.
