Rafa: Israel’s blind cruelty towards Palestinians in Gaza, who are suffering from starvation and epidemics. On the morning of Thursday, February 29, 112 people were killed when Israel opened fire on people waiting at a food distribution center in Gaza City, the capital of northern Gaza. More than 700 people were injured. With this, the number of people killed in the nearly five-month war has crossed 30,000. More than seventy thousand people were injured.
Faris Afana, the spokesperson of Kamal Advan Hospital, who arrived at the scene, said that dead bodies were scattered in Gaza City and there were not even enough ambulances to take the injured to the hospital. Many were taken to the hospital on donkey carts. Hamas alleged that the massacre was unprecedented in the history of war crimes. The action was also accused of being part of Israel’s efforts to completely evict Palestinians from their land.
Arab League and UN call to stop Israeli genocide in Gaza Hamas also demanded that the Security Council join. Meanwhile, the Israeli army said it would investigate the attack on the food distribution center. It is reported that Israel intensified the attack in the background of indications that the cease-fire, which was supposed to be held by next week, will be extended indefinitely. However, mediators Egypt and Qatar expressed optimism that the ceasefire would take effect before the start of Ramadan.
The World Food Program (WFP) has said that food has not been distributed in northern Gaza for the past month due to Israeli blockades. Meanwhile, Jordan is airdropping food packets in southern Gaza. To get this, the people are very busy. A third of Gaza’s 2.3 million people are starving, according to the UN. says The Israeli army said that when the crowd came close to the tanks, they thought they would be a threat to the army and opened fire.
Eyewitnesses said that trucks with relief supplies arrived near Israeli tanks and thousands of people rushed there. The army initially explained that when the trucks arrived, people gathered around them started looting the goods and this created a stampede and many people were injured.
