Nearly 800 People Killed While Receiving Aid in Gaza, Says UN Human Rights Office
GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE, JUL 11 – The UN human rights office recorded 798 Palestinians killed near aid sites since late May amid a militarized aid distribution scheme criticized by international groups.
- Since late May 2025, at least 798 Palestinians have been killed near food aid distribution sites in Gaza operated by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.

- Eyewitness and medical accounts describe frequent shootings, explosions, and stampedes near aid points, with injuries mostly from bullets to legs, torsos, and abdomens.
- Senior surgeon Victoria Rose remarked that the scale and severity of injuries she witnessed were unprecedented in her career, noting that shortages of antibiotics and poor nutrition contributed to the decline in patients' health.
- The UN and humanitarian groups criticize the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation's aid model as unsafe and lacking neutrality, which risks civilian lives and violates humanitarian standards.
