Israel Acknowledges Palestinian Civilians Harmed at Gaza Aid Sites, Says 'Lessons Learned'
- On June 30, 2025, the Israeli military confirmed that Palestinian civilians were injured near locations in Gaza where aid is provided by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, an organization supported by both the US and Israel.
- This acknowledgment came amid reports, including one from Haaretz, claiming that Israeli soldiers were instructed to open fire on Palestinian civilians without weapons near humanitarian aid locations, which sparked controversy and prompted investigations.
- The Israeli military said it took safety measures such as fencing, warning signs, and access routes, issued new instructions after 'lessons learned', and denied intentional harm to civilians.
- United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres condemned the aid operation as fundamentally unsafe, stating, "It is killing people," while Gaza health officials report that over 600 individuals seeking assistance have died since the GHF's launch in late May.
- The incident has led to ongoing investigations, international criticism, Israeli disputes of casualty numbers, and political tensions over the aid delivery model and Gaza's humanitarian crisis.
