Israeli forces have killed 11 Palestinians who have tried to approach aid points run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation this morning, Al Jazeera’s Tareq Abu Azzoum reports.

Health authorities say more than 100 people were wounded, the reporter said.

“It’s very clear that Israeli forces are targeting civilians who only went to get bags of flour or boxes of food. Eyewitnesses say the soldiers used a variety of weapons, including drones and tanks. Snipers who have been deployed in nearby hills have also been gunning down the civilians,” he added.

He said that the Israeli military has claimed that these hungry crowds are a security threat, but these claims have not been substantiated with clear evidence.

“Despite the threat and despite understanding that Israel is trapping and killing people in these humanitarian corridors, Palestinians here continue to take the risk because of the severity of the hunger crisis here,” the reporter concluded.
