📢  Major Announcement: We have incredible news to share.

The young Gazan boy falsely identified as “Amir” by former UG contractor Tony Aguilar is alive and safe.

His real name is Abdul Rahim Muhammad Hamden – “Abood” as his family calls him – and after weeks of high-risk work by the GHF team, he and his mother are now safe.

Let’s get into the story: 🧵 Several weeks ago, Aguilar, a disgruntled former contractor, fabricated a lie that Abood, whom he called “Amir,” was killed outside a GHF site.

He said the boy kissed his hand and thanked him, and that these were his final words. As recently as August 23, Mr. Aguilar further embellished the story, saying Amir was shot in the torso, in the leg, and that he watched him die.

Aguilar spread this story across global media, endangering the boy with sensitive details that put them in the crosshairs of Hamas.

We’ve been sounding the alarm for weeks. Now @washingtonpost just blew the UN’s cover.

Hamas hijacks UN aid, resells it, and pockets the profit. GHF’s secure model blocks the looting, so Hamas wants us gone.

Let’s break down the WaPo piece. 🧵 The article confirms what GHF has long said: Hamas systematically uses international aid to fund its operations to the detriment of the people of Gaza.

Those who don’t go along with this scheme are threatened, and in some cases, even killed.

🚨 A major report from @ncri_io exposes how Hamas-linked propaganda has quietly and quickly become some of the most cited voices in media coverage of Gaza.

There’s A LOT to unpack here. Let’s dive in. 🧵

A thread. Since May 2025, we’ve delivered 78M+ meals, directly to Palestinians in Gaza.

But from the start, our work was vilified in viral headlines that blamed us for mass Palestinian casualties, based largely on unverified, Hamas-linked sources like the Gaza Ministry of Health.

See @ncri_io's graph below for examples of the media outlets most frequently cited, reposted, or referenced in posts about GHF:

🧵 Buckle up. This is a long one.

Critics say “militarized aid” isn’t the answer, but what they really want is a return to the old model. The problem is that the old model never left Gaza. It’s still there and it’s failing in real time.

What many don’t realize is that the @UN, @WFP, and many other humanitarian organizations are still operating in Gaza. But it’s not working. Convoys are being looted daily. Trucks are routinely seized by Hamas or swarmed by armed gangs. When the food does make it through, Hamas controls who gets it and who doesn’t.

Meanwhile, instead of working with GHF to bring their aid in securely, these same organizations, and others like @UNRWAUSA, are launching slick PR campaigns to smear us. Why? Because we’re disrupting the status quo… and their business model.

The media run with their talking points, no questions asked. But they don’t want to look under the hood of how “unmilitarized aid” ACTUALLY plays out on the ground.

So, since they won’t. We will.

Let’s take a look at what happens (according to numerous videos reportedly from Gaza) when food moves without protection in Gaza… Footage reveals Hamas terrorists hijacking humanitarian aid trucks meant for the civilians of Gaza.

You can see armed Hamas operatives riding on top of the trucks.

NEW: We’re shedding light on Hamas’s playbook to try to shut down the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.

They hate us because our model is working. We have delivered 56 million meals in just one month, and for the first time ever, aid is going directly to civilians, not terror organizations.

Here’s the latest on the various tools and tactics Hamas is using to try to stop us, and why we won’t let them.

🧵 1/12 In recent weeks, Hamas has ramped up efforts to disrupt and intimidate GHF, including:

• Murdering 12 of our aid workers
• Placing bounties on the heads of American and Palestinian GHF workers
• Harassing civilians who accept aid
• Releasing a flurry of online propaganda, disinformation and outright lies

These aren’t isolated incidents, they’re part of a deliberate campaign to prevent aid from flowing to the people of Gaza outside of Hamas control.

2/12

Since GHF began distributing life-saving food aid in Gaza - nearly 50 million meals and counting - we’ve been the target of relentless disinformation: doctored images, fake news, and outright lies. Many of them trace back to Hamas.

Why? Because we’re getting food to the people. Not them.

A thread🧵 Take this example: a photo of a moldy wheel of cheese spreading on social media with claims it came from GHF.

This is a lie, straight from the Hamas propaganda machine.

Here’s the truth: We’ve distributed nearly 50 million meals to the people of Gaza. Not one of them included cheese. Not a single ounce.
