At least 26 people have been killed, and scores have been injured, near a US-backed aid distribution site near Gaza’s southern city of Rafah, according to medics and residents.
A local Palestinian journalist told the BBC that thousands of Palestinians had gathered near a humanitarian aid distribution centre when Israeli tanks approached and opened fire on the crowd.
The incident reportedly took place to the west of Rafah, in the south of the Gaza Strip, and the injured are being treated at one of Gaza’s few functioning hospitals in Khan Younis.
“At least 26 killed amid Israeli tank fire near Gaza aid centre, rescuers say”
is the updated version, which I read as some may have died in the crush to escape or by falling or something during the slaughter and mayhem.
Which is typical media style to avoid expensive lawsuits.
Both the IDF and the “aid agency” claim NOTHING HAPPENED, while the doctors at the hospital say all fatal injuries are gunshots.
I’m not sure if they have any of their own people onsite, given that Israel isn’t allowing it and has killed many journalists.
