Another man, Hani Abed, who was at the same distribution centre, said he'd failed to get any aid for him and his 10 family members."I came empty-handed and I left empty-handed," he said. "I will take dirt for my children to eat."

The GHF said approximately 17,280 food boxes, containing the equivalent of 997,920 meals, were handed out to Gazans at its three operational distribution sites on Thursday."Operations will continue scaling, with plans to build additional sites across Gaza, including in the northern region, in the weeks ahead," it added.It also rejected the reports of Palestinians being shot at while trying to obtain aid at its centres. "No shots have ever been fired," it said.

The GHF's new aid system bypasses the UN and requires Palestinians to collect food parcels fromdistribution sites protected by US security contractors in areas controlled by the Israeli military in southern and central Gaza.

The UN has refused to co-operate with the system, saying it is unethical and unworkable.

The head of the UN's humanitarian office in Gaza, Jonathan Whittall, said on Wednesday that GHF could not possibly meet the needs of the 2.1 million population and was "essentially engineering scarcity".Lawyer Ilya Somin, who helped work on the case brought by businesses before the trade court, said he was "guardedly optimistic" the ruling would ultimately be upheld on appeal.

He noted that the trade court order came from justices appointed by both Democratic and Republican presidents, including one by Trump himself."It's not normal for the president of the United States to make such an enormous power grab and start the biggest trade war since the Great Depression," he said.

But Terry Haines, founder of the Pangaea Policy, which advises firms on Washington policies, said he thought "the president is probably going to be given the benefit of the doubt" by the courts.Business owners, while expressing hope, said they did not yet feel like the situation was resolved.
