Dozens killed as Palestinians in Gaza scramble for aid from air and land

GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE, AUG 6 – Israeli forces killed at least 40 Palestinians, including 10 seeking humanitarian aid, amid a siege that has caused famine and led to 180 deaths from starvation since the conflict began.

  • On Monday, Gaza health authorities said at least 13 Palestinians were killed at Zikim crossing and 10 in the Morag Corridor while seeking aid.
  • Gaza requires around 600 aid trucks daily, but Israel has allowed just 674 since July 27, fulfilling only 14% of that need.
  • The United Nations reports over 1,000 people have been killed trying to receive aid in Gaza since May 2025, with Israeli forces shooting at starving Palestinians daily.
  • Bodies were wrapped in blankets as hospitals face shroud shortages due to border restrictions and rising deaths, with Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis receiving at least 38 bodies.
  • Since October 7, 2023, the Israeli offensive has killed nearly 61,000 Palestinians, and famine conditions were predicted months ago after Israel’s full spectrum siege began.
