“Palestinians were gathering in groups and trying to approach distribution points to see if any food would be delivered or handed out. As they moved closer to the distribution site, Israeli forces opened fire, killing three Palestinians,” Al Jazeera’s Hind Khoudary reports from Deir el-Balah, Gaza.

“Doctors treating the wounded reported that most injuries were caused by live ammunition. It is unclear whether the shots came from Israeli quadcopters or soldiers on the ground.

“According to the Civil Defence teams, most of those injured are in serious or critical condition. The Civil Defence teams also stated that Israeli forces are preventing them from reaching and rescuing more of the injured since this morning,” she said.
