At least 24 Palestinians have been killed and dozens injured in an Israeli attack on people waiting for aid in southern Gaza’s Rafah area at an aid distribution site run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), which is backed by Israel and the US, according to the enclave’s Health Ministry.
Bassam Zaqout, director of the Palestinian Medical Relief Society, has described the situation at the US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Fund’s (GHF) aid distribution sites as a “death trap”.
“Honestly, it’s an inhumane act,” he told Al Jazeera from Gaza City. “It’s a war crime … shooting towards civilians directly while they are waiting for aid.”
Zaqout added that there was no clear eligibility criteria as to who should be receiving aid on any particular day.
