A series of tragic events has unfolded in Gaza over the past three days. Dozens of Palestinians have been killed and many more injured while attempting to access food aid at a distribution point in southern Gaza. The incidents occurred near Rafah, where people were gathering to receive much-needed supplies.
According to Palestinian health officials, Israeli forces opened fire on the crowds. The Israeli military stated that they fired warning shots at individuals who deviated from designated routes. The situation has overwhelmed local hospitals, with doctors struggling to treat the high number of casualties.
The international community has expressed deep concern over these incidents. The United Nations human rights chief called the attacks on civilians trying to access food aid "unconscionable" and demanded an investigation. The events highlight the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza, where people face the risk of starvation due to limited access to food and aid.
