US EditionGaza rescuers say Israeli forces kill 60, half near aid centres
GAZA STRIP, JUN 20 – Israeli forces have killed over 400 Palestinian aid seekers since late May amid a near-total blockade causing severe famine and restricted humanitarian access in Gaza, health officials report.
- On June 20, 2025, Israeli forces killed at least 60 Palestinians in Gaza, including 31 aid seekers near distribution centers and multiple strike sites.
- These killings followed weeks of ongoing Israeli bombardment and partial easing of an aid blockade imposed in early March amid truce negotiation deadlock.
- Strikes occurred in Gaza City, Deir el-Balah, and Khan Younis, hitting tents, a phone charging station, and gatherings near aid distribution points.
- Mohammad Al-Mughayyir said, "Forty-three martyrs" fell since dawn June 20, with 26 waiting for aid, while Gaza's Health Ministry reported 67 deaths and 221 injuries that day.
- These deaths deepen Gaza's humanitarian crisis amid Israeli evacuation orders, media restrictions, and difficulties verifying tolls, with likely significant undercounting of casualties.
