US Edition875 Palestinians killed near aid sites, says UN human rights office
GAZA, PALESTINE, JUL 15 – The United Nations reports 875 Palestinians killed near aid sites in Gaza over six weeks, with 81 killed and 400 injured in a single day, underscoring a worsening humanitarian crisis.
- The United Nations rights office reported at least 875 Palestinians were killed in the past six weeks near aid points and convoys in Gaza run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation and other groups.
- This occurred following Israel's lifting of an 11-week aid blockade and amid disputes over aid distribution models, with the UN calling the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation's system inherently unsafe.
- The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation said it delivered over 70 million meals in five weeks but accused the UN of misinformation, while Israel alleges UN-led systems allowed Hamas militants to loot aid.
- UN Secretary-General António Guterres said last month, "It is killing people," adding civilians are dying simply trying to feed their families amid increasing malnutrition and tightened siege conditions since March 2.
- These developments highlight serious humanitarian challenges in Gaza, indicating urgent need for improved aid delivery, adherence to international standards, and calls for a permanent ceasefire and peace-building efforts.
