At least 30 Palestinians were killed while trying to reach food distribution sites operated by a U.S. group
GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE, JUL 20 – At least 32 Palestinians were killed as Israeli forces fired near Gaza aid hubs amid a severe hunger crisis, with over 870 fatalities linked to aid attempts since May, UN estimates show.
- On a recent Saturday morning in southern Gaza, Israeli forces fired upon crowds of Palestinians gathered near aid centers distributing food amidst the ongoing 21-month conflict.
- This incident occurred after Hamas launched a major assault into southern Israel in October 2023, which led to an extended conflict and severe humanitarian hardships, with Israel reducing an 11-week blockade shortly before the violence erupted.
- More than 30 individuals lost their lives near food aid distribution centers, primarily in the Teina region about 3 kilometers from a Gaza Humanitarian Foundation hub, with many others injured and hospitals receiving multiple casualties.
- Witness Akram Aker recounted that soldiers operated machine guns attached to both armored vehicles and drones, while eyewitness Sanaa al-Jaberi described escaping an area where numerous casualties were left as Israeli forces opened fire indiscriminately.
- The incident worsens Gaza’s humanitarian crisis amid faltering ceasefire talks, with local and international actors disputing aid distribution and causes of violence near the hubs.
