Zionist regime forces kill 25 people in Gaza, including 13 aid seekers, since dawn
Israeli forces have carried out a series of attacks across the Gaza Strip, resulting in the deaths of dozens of Palestinians, including 13 individuals seeking assistance.
According to information provided to Al Jazeera by medical sources in Gaza, Israeli forces have killed at least 25 Palestinians across the Gaza Strip since the early hours today, among them 13 individuals seeking humanitarian assistance.
United Nations reports indicate that Israeli forces have fatally shot over 1,000 individuals seeking aid at distribution points managed by the US-run Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) in recent months since May.
The United Nations human rights office announced on Tuesday that over 1,054 Palestinian civilians have lost their lives, and thousands have been injured since May 27, as Israeli forces reportedly opened fire near US-operated aid distribution sites in Gaza.
United Nations officials have criticized the deadly aid operation conducted by GHF, labeling it as “an abomination” and “a death trap,” while highlighting the stringent control exercised by Israeli regime forces over the mission.
The United Nations, traditionally responsible for overseeing aid operations in Palestine, has urged the international community to take decisive action to halt the severe Israeli offensives and blockades affecting Gaza.
Philippe Lazzarini, chief of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), sounded an alarm last week, urging global intervention to tackle Israel’s persistent blockade hindering aid delivery to the Gaza Strip.
Lazzarini asserted that the international community’s lack of response in this matter amounts to complicity in the starvation of Gaza’s population.
On October 7, 2023, Israel launched a fierce military offensive in Gaza following a significant operation by the Hamas resistance group, which was in response to what they described as the regime’s escalating actions against the Palestinian population.
The Israeli government has yet to accomplish its stated goals of dismantling Hamas and rescuing all hostages in Gaza. The ongoing conflict has resulted in the deaths of nearly 60,000 Palestinians, predominantly women and children, and has left approximately 144,000 injured.
