 ❗️US mercenary firm behind aid operation that saw killings of starving Palestinians recruiting for new Gaza deployment

A former army officer says UG Solutions is planning more than a dozen new aid sites in Gaza, with applicants told deployments could begin as early as December and salaries reaching $1,000 a day, according to a report from Drop Site News. Recruits described interviews centered on weapons use and obedience to superiors, reflecting a renewed push for private contractors as the US–sponsored UN resolution on Gaza hands sweeping authority to a Trump-chaired “Board of Peace.”

Additional contracts point to a scaling-up of US involvement, including a new five-year deal with Q2IMPACT to monitor aid in Palestine and Lebanon. Reporting has also exposed the involvement of Infidels Motorcycle Club (Infidels MC) members, which is an American biker gang with a record of anti-Muslim extremism, in security roles at GHF-run distribution sites.

During months of contractor-guarded aid operations, over 2,600 Palestinians seeking food were killed at or near the sites, with video evidence showing guards firing live rounds and stun grenades even when no threat was present.

UG Solutions now faces calls for state investigations in North Carolina over alleged complicity in abuses, as humanitarian conditions in Gaza continue to deteriorate despite a US-brokered so-called ceasefire. Israel has repeatedly violated the agreement while blocking most aid trucks, deepening a famine that has killed hundreds, including more than 150 children, according to Gaza health authorities.
