Israeli forces have killed more than 70 Palestinians across the Gaza Strip since dawn, medical sources have told Tel Aviv Tribune, including hungry aid seekers, while Israel continues to relentlessly bomb the besieged enclave where the United Nations indicates that a famine threatens the entire population.
Israeli troops have once again opened fire on crowds looking for meager food plots for their families near the Netzarim corridor, killing at least 20 people, including a 12 -year -old child, according to the Gaza government media office.
The child was identified as Mohammed Khalil al-Athamneh. More than 200 others were injured.
Distribution points are used by the controversial Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), a campaign supported by the United States and Israeli in Israeli control areas.
The help sites were marked with “human slaughterhouses” because more than 150 people have been killed since GHF began to operate on May 27. Nearly 1,500 have been injured so far, according to the government’s media office.
In a statement on Tuesday, the media office accused the GHF of playing an accomplice role in what it described as “fatal ambushes” disguised as humanitarian relief.
“The GHF has become a fatal tool in the hands of the Israeli army, attracting hungry civilians in the death traps under the pretext of help,” said the press release, denouncing the continuous body operation despite documented attacks against unarmed crowds on its sites.
“ Theater for repeated blood effusions ”
Tareq Abu Azzoum of Tel Aviv Tribune, postponing Deir El-Balah, said that GHF aid distribution centers have become “a theater for repeated blood effects and deliberate attacks against civilians”.
Witnesses have confirmed that the Israeli army had attacked them with “multiple directions,” said Abu Azzoum, adding that drones, tanks and Israeli elite shooters were deployed on isolated assistance sites.
“What is happening … is the systematic eradication of the humanitarian response system,” he said.
The United Nations Agency for Relief and Works for Palestine (UNRWA) again sounded an alarm in the face of the deterioration of the humanitarian situation, claiming Tuesday that the crisis had reached “unprecedented levels of despair”.
More than 2,700 children under the age of five received a diagnosis of acute malnutrition at the end of May, the agency said, calling for urgent humanitarian aid.
Israel has maintained a paralyzing aid blockade since March 2, allowing only a limited assistance net through GHF. At the same time, it has prohibited established humanitarian organizations from operating on the territory – excluding those who have experience in the provision of aid of hundreds of distribution points to the entire Gaza population.
Elsewhere in Gaza, an air strike in Al -Mawasi – an Israeli proclaimed “security zone” which has undergone a repeated attack, east of Khan Younis – killed three people sheltering in travel tents. Three other Palestinians were killed after a strike of the Israeli drone targeted a group of people in the Ma’an region, east of Khan Younis.
Attacks are involved as one of the last functional hospitals in the south of the city of Southern City has ceased operations due to “the increase in hostilities” nearby, said the Director General of the World Health Organization Tedros, Adhanom Ghebreyesus.
In a position on X, Tedros warned that with the closure of the Al-Aal hospital, the Nasser Hospital is now the only remaining hospital with an intensive care unit in Khan Younis.
Hospitals are overwhelmed and on the verge of collapse, the Ministry of Health has warned several times.
In the north of Gaza, medical sources reported that four paramedical paramedics had been killed by Israeli shots during their humanitarian functions in the Tuffah district of Gaza City. The other three were killed in an air strike on Jabalia.
Residents of Nablus’ under the locking ”
Israeli forces have also intensified incursions in the cities and villages of the West Bank occupied in recent days as part of an assault of several months on the territory.
On Tuesday, during an an hour raid in Naplus, Israeli troops fired tear gas and living bullets towards residents who killed two brothers, identified as Nidal and Khaled Mahdi Ahmad Umairah, aged 40 and 35, respectively.
Israeli troops had opened fire live on the brothers of Umairah in the old town of Naplus during the ongoing military raid, preventing the ambulance teams from reaching them, the WAFA news agency reported.
More than 85 people were injured in the assault, while many others have been detained.
The Nour Odeh of Tel Aviv Tribune said that residents of the old town of Nablus were “under the locking”.
“They cannot leave their home; They cannot have access to any service, “she said. “Even paramedical paramedics tell us that they have a lot of trouble reaching those who need their help.”
