Gaza rescuers have said Israeli gunfire killed at least 10 Palestinians and wounded more than 100 earlier today as thousands of people headed towards a US-backed aid distribution site, AFP reports.

“At least 10 Palestinians were killed and more than 100 others … were wounded due to gunfire from Israeli vehicles towards thousands of citizens” approaching the US aid site west of Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, civil defence spokesman Mahmud Bassal told AFP.

The dead and wounded were transferred to Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis, he said.
