Israeli military officials admit to shooting at Palestinians waiting for humanitarian aid
Israeli military officials admitted they fired at Palestinian civilians lining up for aid in Gaza even though they posed no threat, according to a report by Haaretz newspaper on Monday. The admission follows a report by the newspaper on Friday in which Israeli soldiers admitted they were directed to fire at starving civilians at the five distribution points in Gaza, where the US-Israel backed Gaza Humanitarian Fund (GHF) has been delivering limited aid since 27 May. Nearly 600 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces seeking aid since then. The officials in the Southern Command unit said they were 'ordered to fire at unarmed crowds near food distribution sites in Gaza, even when no threat was present' and said 'that civilians had been killed due to 'inaccurate and uncalculated' artillery fire', according to the report. They said that in the most serious incident, between 30 and 40 people were targeted.

Israeli army kills one Palestinian and wounds eight others lining up for aid in Gaza
The Israeli army killed one Palestinian and wounded eight others while they were waiting for aid east of Khan Younis, Al Jazeera reported on Monday, citing Nasser Medical complex as a source. Israel has killed almost 600 people waiting in line for aid since it took over distributing aid from United Nations and human rights organisations at the end of May. The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), the controversial US-Israeli organisation operating aid points in Gaza, has been widely condemned by human rights organisations for its lack of transparency and accountability. On Wednesday, 15 human rights and legal groups called for the suspension of GHF for its role in undermining international humanitarian organisations and fostering the 'forced displacement' of Palestinians in Gaza, amounting to what could be complicity in 'crimes under international law, including war crimes, crimes against humanity, or genocide'.
