Israeli troops opened fire Saturday toward crowds of Palestinians seeking food from distribution hubs run by a U.S.-, Israeli-backed group in southern Gaza, killing at least 32 people, according to witnesses and hospital officials.

 

The two incidents occurred near hubs operated by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.

 

In other violence, two Palestinians were killed in an Israeli airstrike in Gaza City, health officials said.

Israeli troops opened fire at crowds of innocent Palestinians seeking food from distribution hubs in southern Gaza on Saturday, killing at least 32 people, it's believed.

 

Witnesses and hospital officials said the shootings occurred near hubs operated by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, a US and Israeli-backed group which launched operations in May.

 

While the GHF said it distributed millions of meals to hungry Palestinians, local health officials and witnesses say that Israeli army fire has killed hundreds of people as they try to reach the hubs. GHF's four sites are in military-controlled zones.

The head of a UN office in the Gaza Strip has described an aid distribution scheme run by a rival organization as a "sadistic death trap."

 

Philippe Lazzarini is the head of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), which was criticized by Israel for allegedly employing members from the Hamas Islamist movement which attacked southern Israel in October 2023.

 

An Israeli and UN-backed rival aid group called Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) has been operating in the coastal strip in recent times, but there have been widespread Palestinian media reports of Israeli attacks on those waiting in line for help.

A former US soldier who was employed to work within the Gaza aid system approved by Israel has said he saw security personnel shoot at Palestinians at a distribution centre.

 

 

The unnamed American man, who served for 25 years in the US army, has said how he witnessed force being used against unarmed innocent civilians in the Gaza Strip.

 

"There is no fixing this, this needs to be put an end to," he said in a video aired by Israeli free-to-air TV station Channel 12.

The morning of July 20, a convoy of 25 trucks from the World Food Programme (WFP) carrying essential aid crossed the border into northern Gaza.

 

Civilians who were gathering to try to access the aid came under fire by the Israeli military, according to both the WFP and those present.

 

The Israeli army denies this. Our team spoke to Ahmed Abou Askar, a young Palestinian who was among those trying to collect food.

A former US veteran who was employed at a food distribution site in Gaza has accused members of the Israel Defence Forces and American colleagues of deliberately targeting and killing unarmed Palestinian civilians.

Lieutenant-Colonel Anthony Aguilar, a former special forces veteran, was recruited to work for the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, a joint Israeli-US scheme replacing the United Nations food distribution operation in Gaza.    

He has told the BBC he witnessed the IDF shooting at the crowds of Palestinians, firing a main tank round into a car carrying civilians and firing mortars at crowds of hungry people waiting for food.

Gaza aid site offered a 'women only' day. It didn't stop the killing.

 

The food distribution was announced in advance, like many before it, in a post on social media carrying an illustration of smiling Palestinians receiving boxes of aid.

This time, however, the invitation shared by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) was different, featuring illustrations of only women.

 

"Tomorrow at our morning distribution at our location in the Saudi district, only women are welcome to come and receive a food box," the GHF post said. "Men should avoid the site during this distribution."

Israeli strikes and gunfire in the Gaza Strip killed at least 46 Palestinians overnight into Wednesday morning, most of them among crowds seeking food, local hospitals said.

 

The Shifa hospital in Gaza City said that it received 12 people who were killed Tuesday night when Israeli forces opened fire towards crowds awaiting aid trucks coming from the Zikim crossing in northwestern Gaza.

 

Thirteen others were killed in strikes in the Jabaliya refugee camp, and the northern towns of Beit Lahiya and Beit Hanoun, the hospital said.
