Article by Yara M. Asi documents Israel's December 2025 suspension of 37 humanitarian organizations operating in Gaza, arguing that the ban is a continuation of Israel's deliberate weaponization of aid against the Palestinian population. The piece details the humanitarian impacts of the suspensions, Israel's new regulations on NGOs, the ideological motivations behind the ban, and efforts to silence credible witnesses to Israel's genocide in Gaza.
