The United States government has only sent $3 million in food aid to Gaza, according to a new report by The Washington Post. This report goes against earlier public claims made by former President Donald Trump, who said the US gave $60 million to help feed people in the Gaza Strip.

The article, published on Saturday, cited sources from the US State Department. These officials confirmed that although $30 million was allocated for Gaza food aid, the amount actually given out is much lower than what was claimed by Trump.

The aid money was meant to support food relief through an organization called the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF). GHF is a group that has received backing from both the US and Israeli governments, but it has also faced controversy in the past due to its operations.

Of the $30 million allocated, only 10 percent—just $3 million—has been disbursed so far. This small portion contradicts Trump's repeated claims of a $60 million donation for Gaza relief.

Many people have criticized the slow and limited release of funds, especially as the humanitarian situation in Gaza continues to worsen. Food shortages and rising hunger rates are affecting thousands of families in the region.

The report has sparked fresh debate over the accuracy of US foreign aid statements and the real impact of American support in conflict areas like Gaza. More transparency and timely action are being demanded by human rights advocates.
