The Geneva branch of an Israeli- and U.S.-backed group that delivers aid to Gaza has been ordered to comply with its registration requirements or face possible court action.



The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) began distributing food packages in Gaza at the end of May, overseeing a new model of aid distribution which has been criticised by the United Nations.



The GHF is registered in the United States. It registered an affiliate in Geneva on February 12.



A legal document posted on the Commercial Register of the Swiss Canton of Geneva dated Thursday said the GHF affiliate had "deficiencies in the organization that is mandatory by law."



The registry gave the GHF 30 days to fix those deficiencies. If it fails to comply, the case will be forwarded to a local court or supervisory authority for action against it, it said.
