Israel kills two children in northern Gaza
A source in Gaza’s emergency and ambulance service tells our colleagues at Al Jazeera Arabic that two children were killed by Israeli forces in the Jabalia an-Nazla area.
Death toll rising rapidly in Gaza
In another update on the number of people killed by Israel in Gaza today, sources at local hospitals tell our colleagues on the ground that the number has risen to at least 51.
At least 16 of those people were seeking aid.
Killings at aid sites are ‘going to continue’ unless Palestinians get more food
Every single day since this notorious GHF opened at the end of May, every single day, Palestinians are being shot for the sake of food, for the sake of feeding their families, and we met a lot of those Palestinians who went.
We met women, men, children, and the only reason why they’re pushed and driven to go to these areas is because they’re hungry, they’re starving, they need food.
They’re sick of seeing their children dying in front of their eyes without doing anything due to the mass starvation.
As long as Palestinians don’t get food the way they used to, this is going to continue, and the situation is not going to get better on the ground. Palestinians are getting desperate. They’re helpless, and they’re risking their lives for the sake of food.
Journalist killed by Israeli military in northern Gaza City
The Palestinian Journalists Syndicate has confirmed that journalist Khaled al-Madhoun has been killed by the Israeli military in the northern Gaza Strip.
He was targeted near the Zikim crossing, north of besieged Gaza City, while waiting to document the arrival of limited humanitarian aid trucks.
About 270 journalists and media workers have been killed by Israeli attacks since the start of the war – or about 13 journalists every month – according to a tally by Shireen.ps, a monitoring website named after Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, who was shot and killed by Israeli forces in the occupied West Bank in 2022.
