UN Says Hundreds Killed in Recent Weeks While Seeking Aid in Gaza
GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE, JUL 12 – Nearly 800 Palestinians have died seeking aid since May, with 615 killed near Gaza Humanitarian Foundation sites amid ongoing Israeli airstrikes and blockade conditions.
- Israeli forces killed at least 10 Palestinians on Friday while they waited for food aid near Rafah in southern Gaza amid ongoing violence.
- The killings and nearly 800 similar deaths seeking aid since late May reflect the broader context of the Gaza war sparked by Hamas's October 7, 2023 attack on Israel.
- The conflict has destroyed Gaza's enclave, caused food shortages, spread diseases, and placed nearly 3,000 children at risk of permanent malnutrition due to blocked treatments.
- Benjamin Netanyahu said he hopes to strike a 60-day ceasefire in the coming days and then negotiate a permanent end if Hamas relinquishes its weapons and Gaza control.
- The reported violence and aid blockade underline a dire humanitarian crisis for Gaza's two million residents, with indirect talks ongoing to agree on a temporary ceasefire.
