Switzerland has said it will close the Geneva branch of the US and Israeli-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) because it had neither a Swiss address nor a representative in the country.

GHF operations have been marred by chaotic scenes and near-daily reports of Israeli forces firing on people waiting to collect rations in the Palestinian territory, where the Israeli military is seeking to destroy Hamas.
