55 More Killed by Israeli Strikes in Gaza
- On Wednesday, Israeli fire and air strikes killed 55 people in the Palestinian territory of Gaza near aid distribution points.
- The violence followed a broader conflict triggered in October 2023, with Israel imposing a near-total blockade and a US-backed foundation distributing aid in Gaza.
- The attacks overwhelmed medical facilities and involved dozens more deaths and injuries in multiple strikes, including at people seeking food from convoys in Khan Younis.
- UNRWA chief Philippe Lazzarini called the aid scheme a "death trap," while the Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor urged investigation into the foundation's role in escalating violence.
- These events highlight growing humanitarian crisis risks as starvation and restricted aid worsen, with over 300 Palestinians reportedly killed while seeking aid since late May.
