A State Department spokesperson said that the U.S. has given roughly $3 million to the Gaza food distribution program. Trump has claimed $60 million.

U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee also visited Gaza "to learn the truth about" Gaza Humanitarian Foundation sites.

President Donald Trump's Middle East envoy became the first high-profile U.S. official to visit Gaza since the war began, touring a U.S.-backed aid operation on Friday that the United Nations says is partly to blame for deadly conditions in the enclave.
