Following recent directives from Chechen authorities, all local charities have been instructed to cease their fundraising activities for Gaza, citing concerns over transparency and oversight in the distribution of aid. This decision was made shortly before the appointment of Ramzan Kadyrov’s 17-year-old son, Eldar, to oversee the coordination of aid supplies sent to the conflict-torn region.
The move has sparked discussions about the potential implications of involving a minor in such a critical role, with some expressing concern over the accountability and decision-making capabilities of a teenager in crisis management. However, the Chechen government maintains that the appointment is a practical step to expedite aid delivery and ensure adherence to regulatory standards in charitable efforts.
