Two US aid workers injured in Gaza: GHF
The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), tasked with distributing food and aid supplies in the Gaza Strip, says two American aid workers have been wounded in a “targeted attack”.
“Thank God the injuries are not life threatening,” it said in a statement, asking people to “please pray for the injured and their families,” spokesperson Reverend Johnnie Moore posted on X, adding that more information will be provided “as it becomes available”.
GHF has been a source of widespread criticism since its establishment in May. International aid groups and the United Nations have refused to work with the US and Israeli-backed body, saying it violates basic humanitarian principles by coordinating delivery with Israeli troops backed by privately hired and armed US security personnel.
More than 600 Palestinians have been killed while waiting for food aid distributed at GHF sites, the Gaza Health Ministry has said.
Gaza war’s total death toll rises
Gaza’s Health Ministry says at least 70 dead bodies and 332 wounded people arrived at hospitals across Gaza over the past 24 hours.
Since Israel broke the ceasefire with Hamas on March 18, at least 6,780 Palestinians have been killed and more than 23,916 wounded.
Since the start of the war on Gaza in October 2023, Israeli forces have killed at least 57,338 Palestinians and wounded 135,957, with thousands of additional victims buried under the rubble.
Number of Palestinians killed while trying to get food crosses 700
We spoke with witnesses who described people being shot and killed, left lying in the areas where aid was being distributed. No one dared to pick them up because they were afraid of being shot as well.
Only a few bodies have been recovered from these sites, transferred to hospitals, and registered by health facilities in the central and southern regions.
The number of Palestinians killed while trying to get food has now crossed 700. This is happening in a place where enforced dehydration and starvation is widespread. People are going hungry. They ration what little they have. Many families are not eating. Mothers are skipping meals to make sure their children have enough.
This also reveals another side of the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF). Whatever they are doing is hardly relief. It’s largely performative – there is nothing genuinely humanitarian about it. They are crowding desperate people into dangerous conditions with zero safety and zero transparency.
