Gunfire at Gaza Aid Route Leaves Four Dead Amid Mounting Hunger Crisis

Palestinian father Mahmoud Abedrabo mourns over the body of his son Hamada, who was killed Sunday in an Israeli strike, according to medics, at Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City.


Four Palestinians were killed Sunday when Israeli forces opened fire on a crowd of people traveling through a military zone south of Gaza City, according to hospital officials and eyewitnesses. The group had been heading toward a food distribution site operated by the Israeli-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation in the Netzarim corridor, an area frequently used by residents seeking aid.

Witnesses described the gunfire as “indiscriminate,” saying panic erupted as people fled, while some fell to the ground after being hit. The Israeli military has not commented on the incident.

The deaths come as Gaza faces worsening famine conditions, with the U.N. warning that hunger in Gaza City could spread further south within weeks. Gaza’s Health Ministry reports that more than 2,000 Palestinians have been killed while seeking aid since the war began, with malnutrition-related deaths continuing to rise.

Humanitarian agencies say aid convoys are often overwhelmed by desperate crowds, and security risks have made distribution increasingly dangerous. The latest shooting underscores the peril faced by civilians simply trying to secure food in the war-torn enclave.
