Hamas-Run Gaza Health Ministry Claim 27 Killed by Israeli Fire Near Aid Site in Gaza
A deadly incident unfolded early Tuesday in the Rafah region of southern Gaza, where 27 Palestinians were killed and more than 90 wounded by Israeli gunfire while reportedly waiting for humanitarian aid. The information was released by the Gaza health ministry, which is operated by Hamas. The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) acknowledged firing shots in the vicinity of an aid distribution site but claimed the shooting occurred approximately half a kilometre away from the official aid location. According to the IDF, the shots were aimed at individuals they believed posed a threat, having approached the military in a suspicious manner. “Earlier today (Tuesday), during the movement of the crowd along the designated routes toward the aid distribution site—approximately half a kilometre from the site—IDF troops identified several suspects moving toward them, deviating from the designated access routes,” the military said in a statement. “The troops carried out warning fire, and after the suspects failed to retreat, additional shots were directed near a few individual suspects who advanced toward the troops.” The Gaza government’s media office, also under Hamas control, responded to the deaths with strong condemnation. In a statement, it accused Israel of intentionally turning aid centres into deadly zones. “Israel is transforming aid distribution centres into mass death traps and bloodbaths,” it said, highlighting that 102 people had died and 490 more were injured since aid operations began on May 27. The aid site in question was operated by the US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), which clarified that the distribution of aid had proceeded safely within its grounds and that no incident had occurred directly at the site. However, the foundation acknowledged reports of injuries nearby. “While the aid distribution was conducted safely and without incident at our site today, we understand that IDF is investigating whether a number of civilians were injured after moving beyond the designated safe corridor and into a closed military zone,” the GHF said. “This was an area well beyond our secure distribution site and operations area.” In a statement Tuesday morning, GHF said it handed out “21 truckloads of food this morning, totaling 20,160 boxes.” “We understand that IDF is investigating whether a number of civilians were injured after moving beyond the designated safe corridor and into a closed military zone,” GHF said. ” We recognise the difficult nature of the situation and advise all civilians to remain in the safe corridor when travelling to our distribution sites,” the organization added. Tuesday’s tragic event underscores the increasingly perilous environment surrounding humanitarian aid operations in Gaza. As military tensions persist and desperation for food and supplies intensifies, civilians are caught in the crossfire, with aid efforts now shadowed by repeated violence and growing mistrust.

Report Thai Man Jailed in Singapore for Bribery After Public Urination
Not making excuses for him --but its fact that most Asian countries do not have enough public toilets or public rubbish bins. The guy in Pattaya had no excuses , he could have just run into a bar and the price of a soft drink could have used the toilet. I don't know Singapore enough to know the area that he was in, but a jail sentence seems a little harsh, he was at least doing it down a drain--unlike our Chinese Tourist , who just squat down and Key by the side of the road.
