Israel Admits Civilian Deaths at Gaza Aid Sites

News summary

The Israeli military has admitted to killing and injuring Palestinian civilians near Gaza aid distribution sites, including through inaccurate artillery fire, with at least three documented incidents causing 30-40 casualties. The IDF claims the deaths were unintentional, resulting from crowd control efforts and preventing entry into restricted areas, while denying deliberate targeting of aid seekers and disputing higher casualty figures reported by Hamas. Extensive reporting and testimonies have led to international condemnation, with the UN and rights groups warning that the US- and Israel-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation’s model is unsafe and forces civilians into dangerous, militarized zones. Since May 19, over 400 Palestinians have reportedly been killed at aid distribution points. In response, the Israeli military says it has reorganized access routes, implemented new security measures, and is investigating each incident. Despite these changes, humanitarian organizations warn that obtaining aid in Gaza remains extremely dangerous for civilians.
