Israeli forces martyr 23 people in Gaza, many at aid site

GAZA   (  WEB  NEWS  )

Israeli fire and airstrikes martyred at least 23 Palestinians across the Gaza Strip, most of them near an aid distribution site operated by the U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, local health authorities said.

Medics at Al-Awda and Al-Aqsa Hospitals in central Gaza areas, where most of the casualties were moved to, said at least 15 people were martyred as they tried to approach the GHF aid distribution site near the Netzarim corridor.

The rest were martyred in separate attacks across the enclave, they added. There has been no immediate comment by the Israeli military or the GHF on Saturday’s incidents.

The GHF began distributing food packages in Gaza at the end of May, overseeing a new model of aid distribution which the United Nations says is neither impartial nor neutral.
