Aguilar worked with UG Solutions between May and June this year and describes the entire operation as deeply dysfunctional.

“Nothing was open. Nobody could figure out how to get food there,” Aguilar said in an interview with France 24’s Jessica Le Masurier. “So we had the idea of [ordering pizza] in Beersheba and having them make 27 pizzas and deliver them through Wolt, which is the Israeli DoorDash, to the main operations center in Karem Shalom.”

The pizzas were then transported into Gaza in what Aguilar described as “an armored convoy,” eventually reaching Distribution Site 1, where they were handed out to Palestinian local workers, referring to the difficulties in feeding local workers who were assisting GHF operations.

Let me get this straight,” Le Masurier asked. “Safe Reach Solutions was able to bring pizza in when the entire population of Gaza is starving and there are UN aid trucks that are unable to enter Gaza and not allowed to distribute aid while people are starving. But SRS was able to bring in pizza to one of their sites?”

“It’s abhorrent. If it weren’t so tragic, it would be comedy. It’s not comedy, because it is absolutely tragic,” Aguilar said.
