25 قتيلاً .. مجزرة إسرائيلية جديدة في غزة

The occupation forces committed a new Israeli massacre, resulting in the deaths of 25 Palestinians today (Tuesday), near a distribution center for aid at the Gaza Valley Bridge in the devastated central sector. Al-Awda Hospital in the Al-Nuseirat refugee camp reported that the Palestinians were waiting for aid trucks on Salah al-Din Road south of Gaza Valley.

Meanwhile, Civil Defense spokesperson Mahmoud Bassal noted that Civil Defense teams transported 21 dead from the Al-Nuseirat camp, following gunfire and artillery shelling by the Israeli army directed at thousands of citizens who were waiting for aid near an American aid center between Netzarim and the Gaza Valley Bridge.

A witness confirmed that the Israeli army fired bullets and several artillery shells simultaneously with gunfire from Israeli drones targeting thousands of Palestinians, with more than 150 injuries reported to Al-Awda Hospital in the Al-Nuseirat camp, as a result of the Israeli army's gunfire and artillery shelling directed at thousands of citizens waiting for aid near an American aid center between Netzarim and the Gaza Valley Bridge.

A witness confirmed that the Israeli army fired bullets and several artillery shells simultaneously with gunfire from Israeli drones at thousands of Palestinians waiting for aid as they approached the Netzarim intersection near the Gaza Valley Bridge, leading to casualties and injuries.

One eyewitness described what happened as a "massacre," adding that Israeli tanks and drones fired at the Palestinians, "even as we tried to flee... many were killed or injured," according to the Associated Press.

For its part, the United Nations confirmed that the diversion of food in Gaza is a "war crime," calling on the occupying army to "stop firing at people seeking food."

The United Nations Human Rights Office emphasized that "the exploitation of food for military purposes against civilians, as well as restricting or preventing their access to vital services, is a war crime."

Several human rights organizations called on the "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation," which is involved in distributing aid to the devastated and besieged residents of the sector amidst chaos and casualties, to halt its operations, warning of potential complicity in "war crimes."

The United Nations and non-governmental humanitarian organizations refuse to work with the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, which is supported by the United States and Israel, due to concerns about its procedures and neutrality.

Since early March, Israel has been preventing humanitarian aid from entering the Gaza Strip, leading to severe shortages of food, medicine, and other essential goods, and in late May, the blockade was partially lifted.

According to the United Nations Human Rights Office, the Israeli army has killed more than 410 Palestinians while they attempted to reach food distribution points in Gaza.

The Ministry of Health in Gaza announced that 450 people have been killed and about 3,500 others injured since the "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" began distributing aid in late May, during their attempts to reach the distribution points.
