Over 1,370 Palestinians killed while seeking food: UN

Sharjah 242 days ago
Despite Israel's 27 July announcement of daily military pauses in western Gaza 'to improve humanitarian responses,' Israeli forces continued attacks along food convoy routes and near GHF aid sites, the OHCHR said in a press release issued on Friday.
'[The office] has no information that these Palestinians were directly participating in hostilities or posed any threat to Israeli security forces or other individuals. Each person killed or injured had been desperately struggling for survival, not only for themselves, but also for their families and dependents,' it said.

"Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke with the head of the Red Cross delegation in our region, Julien Lerisson, and requested his involvement in providing food to our hostages and providing them with immediate medical treatment", the statement read. The request came days after Palestinian militant groups released videos of two Israeli hostages held in Gaza appearing emaciated.

At least 70 Palestinians, including 37 aid seekers, killed in Israeli attacks since dawn

At least 70 Palestinians, including 37 aid seekers, were killed in Israeli attacks across Gaza on Sunday, Wafa news agency is reporting, citing medical sources and eyewitness statements. Israeli forces launched multiple attacks on Palestinians waiting to receive food aid throughout Sunday, killing at least 37 people, including at least seven when Israeli forces opened fired on crowds gathered at an aid distribution site near Khan Younis. The sources said the toll is expected to rise due to the number of injured amid the near-collapse of the enclave's health system and the Israeli siege preventing the entry of medical supplies.
