How Gaza’s Food Queues Turned Into Kill Zones
- The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation suspended all its aid distribution sites on Friday, June 6, 2025, after Israeli soldiers opened fire near aid points, killing about 110 Palestinians.
- This closure followed a new Israeli-backed aid system designed to prevent Hamas from seizing supplies, which caused scarce, remote distribution sites requiring long, dangerous journeys.
- Within the first week, two large-scale shootings near sites such as Rafah killed dozens, with many Palestinians deviating from designated routes despite warning shots and military presence.
- GHF reported distributing 5.8 million meals in the first week, but leaders like former director Jake Wood resigned, calling the framework unworkable without violating humanitarian principles.
- The incidents sparked condemnation from Gaza authorities and international observers, who described the aid sites as 'death traps' and called for urgent UN action against these violations.
