A desperate attempt for food turned deadly in Gaza on Thursday after eyewitnesses and local officials reported more than a hundred people were killed while gathering around a convoy of aid trucks.
The attack happened in Gaza City where witnesses say Israeli forces opened fire followed by chaos around the fleet of trucks.
A journalist on the ground reported, that once the shooting began, the trucks tried to escape, and some people were killed after being run over. Israel says the initial gunfire were warning shots after the 30 aid trucks arrived.
They say the convoy moved past Israeli troops and then a mass group of Palestinians approached the trucks.
The Israeli forces say they’re looking into this and a second incident involving gunfire as they believe troupes are being approached in a threatening way.
“The visuals that we’ve distributed stalled, that and stampeded the truckloads as they climbed the bomb, they were pushing, they were shoving people were trampled, and also run over, we have to keep in mind this is a combat zone and our forces are confronted with explosive devices that Hamas terrorists have attached to the tanks, RPG weapons, all different types of attacks,” says Isreal Defense Forces Spokesperson Lt. Peter Lerner.
“Civilians cannot be a target. Civilians need to be protected. And we call for a full investigation into what was reported. We from ourselves have no information as to what happened in these events,” according to UN Spokesperson to the UN Secretary-General Stéphane Dujarric.
Today, both the Biden administration and Hamas believe these attacks could hinder talks of a ceasefire. According to Palestinian authorities, today’s incident brings the death toll in Gaza to more than 30,000 people since the war began.
