‘Dozens’ of Palestinians killed in attack on Gaza City
Ashraf al-Qudra, spokesman for the Ministry of Health in Gaza, says via a statement that Israeli forces “committed a horrific massacre” in southern Gaza City, near the Kuwaiti roundabout on Salah al-Din Street.
The Ministry of Health says dozens of people have been killed and injured. It seems that the Israeli military is right now targeting people who are waiting desperately for food, for anything to survive.
No new humanitarian convoys can be allowed to get to the north without any prior coordination with the Israeli military. And at the same time, Israel’s full control over the ground means that they control what goes in and what comes out now.

Death of children from malnutrition ‘unlawful’: Amnesty International chief
Agnes Callamard says the deaths of children succumbing to dehydration and malnutrition are the “result of acts by Israeli authorities which engineered famine”.
“They knew the likely outcome of their actions but persisted,” she said in a post on X, adding that countries which halted funding to United Nations aid agency UNRWA also “bear responsibility”.
These deaths are unlawful, the result of acts by Israel authorities which engineered famine. They knew the likely outcome of their actions but persisted. Over weeks and months. And all States that cut UNRWA funding, sold weapons and supported Israel bear responsibility too. https://t.co/nA0DQrkggp
