Israeli forces kill or injure 11 Palestinians awaiting food trucks, say Gaza officials
Briefly

The recent violence in central Gaza has led to the deaths and injuries of Palestinians as Israeli forces opened fire on individuals waiting for food. The situation in Gaza has been exacerbated by a severe blockade, pushing the population towards famine conditions. Aid deliveries have been hampered by military restrictions and chaos on the ground, making it difficult for humanitarian efforts to reach those in desperate need. The UN has reported alarming levels of food insecurity and warned of the risk of famine in the region, as civilians struggle to access essential supplies.
Eleven Palestinians were killed or injured on Tuesday morning after Israeli forces opened fire on a crowd waiting for food trucks in central Gaza, civil defence officials in the devastated territory have said.
Food has become extremely scarce in Gaza since a tight blockade on all supplies entering Gaza was imposed by Israel throughout March and April, threatening many of the 2.3 million people who live there with a critical risk of famine.
