The WFP reported on how the Israeli army opened fire on a crowd of starving civilians rushing an aid convoy in northern Gaza, which killed 90 people. The Israeli army lied and said no one was shot. Eyewitnesses describe a massacre.
The Israeli-backed and U.S.-run Gaza Humanitarian Foundation said that its distribution on Thursday would only be for Palestinian women. Eyewitnesses say that GHF staff pepper-sprayed them and beat them with batons, while two women were killed.
On Sunday, Israel bombed a water distribution point in the central Gaza Strip, as dozens of civilians, mostly women and children, waited in line for water. Twelve people were killed, eight of them children. It was not the first time.
Palestinians have delivered testimony after testimony about the Israeli-backed and U.S.-run “death traps” masquerading as aid sites. But no one listened until Haaretz published direct testimony from the perpetrators.
Israel’s war on Iran has buried our genocide in the headlines, but what Israel is doing in Gaza is a stain upon humanity. Don’t stop talking about it.
Ahmad, a 16-year-old boy in Gaza, leaves his home at 3 a.m., armed with an iron hammer and a utility knife. But Ahmad is not a soldier, nor a fighter. He seeks only one thing: to obtain a sack of flour. And to do so, he must be prepared to die.
The Israeli army has killed over 100 Palestinians at the U.S.-run aid distribution centers in Gaza in under two weeks. By now, it follows a predictable script, either denying the massacre or claiming soldiers fired on “suspicious” individuals.
Another U.S.-run aid center was the site of a massacre in southern Gaza after Israeli forces opened fire on civilians. “The Americans and Israelis set a huge trap for us to lure us here and kill us,” an eyewitness told Mondoweiss.
For the third time this week, chaos broke out at the aid distribution point run by the U.S. and Israeli-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. Eyewitnesses said American mercenaries did not intervene once they witnessed armed looting in at the site.
