At least 24 Palestinians desperately seeking food aid amid widespread hunger in Gaza have been killed in an Israeli attack in the besieged territory’s central area, ARY News reported quoting Al Jazeera news.
According to the report, the victims were killed while waiting for food at Salah al-Din Street just south of Wadi Gaza in the centre of the Strip.
Footage obtained by Sanad showed the bodies of the victims piling up at Gaza’s Nasser Medical Complex and Al Awda Hospital in Gaza.
Israeli attacks on Palestinians near aid centres have killed more than 400 people and wounded about 1,000 since the Israeli and US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation began aid distribution on May 27.
