Israel accused of second mass killing of Gazans seeking aid
They went to Rafah, desperate for aid to feed their starving families, directed there by Israel. And for a third day, they came under fire. 27 killed today, after three yesterday and as many as 31 on Sunday. This, in addition to the dozens more people killed by air strikes across the Strip. The Israeli and US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation has opened four so-called 'Safe Distribution Sites' in Gaza. The latest shooting happened near a roundabout. Israel's military said it opened fire on people who left a designated access route that leads to the only site giving out aid. That site in southern Rafah distributed only 21 truckloads of food on Tuesday, despite widespread hunger and starvation. A warning, this report contains distressing scenes.
