U.S-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation says 20 people killed in crush
KHAN YOUNIS, GAZA STRIP, JUL 16 – The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation attributed the deadly crowd surge to armed agitators affiliated with Hamas amid a severe humanitarian crisis where 674 deaths occurred near GHF aid sites, the UN reported.
- A U.S.-based group supported by Israel reported that 20 Palestinians lost their lives close to a distribution center in Gaza on Wednesday.
- The group accused Hamas of spreading misinformation and causing panic that led to violence, though it provided no evidence.
- The organization, established in February to distribute aid amid Gaza's humanitarian crisis, operates in an area under siege since Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, 2023.
- Hospital officials reported that Israeli attacks have resulted in the deaths of 22 people, among them 11 children, while Gaza's Health Ministry has documented several hundred fatalities and many more injured amid the ongoing violence.
- The killings near aid points and ongoing fire toward crowds suggest persistent risks for Palestinians seeking humanitarian assistance in Gaza.
