The number of Palestinians killed at the controversial US- and Israeli-backed GHF sites has surpassed 770.

The GHF’s only food distribution point in central Gaza has been shut, forcing tens of thousands of Palestinians to eventually move south in search of food.

Health officials warn hundreds of patients would die from power outages in hospitals in northern Gaza.

‘People are dying just trying to get food’

The World Food Programme’s deputy executive director and chief operating officer, Carl Skau, visited Gaza City.

In a statement later, he said the following about his visit:

This is my fourth visit to Gaza since the start of the conflict. The situation is the worst I’ve ever seen. It’s hard to find words to describe the level of desperation I have witnessed. People are dying just trying to get food.

Aid distribution in Gaza used as a tool of genocide

Amid the near-daily killing of aid seekers around the Gaza Humanitarian Fund (GHF) aid sites, academic Pietro Stefanini says the US and Israel are deliberately weaponising humanitarian assistance to serve military and strategic objectives, bypassing established aid channels.

“There is this weaponisation of aid distribution as a tool of genocide, which is done specifically to advance strategic war aims.”

Erdogan urges Trump to stop violence at Gaza aid hubs

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan says he has asked US President Donald Trump to intervene to stop the Gaza aid centre shootings, which the UN says have killed more than 600 people.

“There are people who are being killed in food queues. You need to intervene here so that these people are not killed,” Erdogan said when he met Trump at a NATO summit in late June.

Aid distribution may be a sticking point in ceasefire talks

Namely, that Hamas wants to ensure that aid is allowed in through international organisations and the Palestinian Red Crescent, and that aid distribution would resume in the hundreds of distribution points, rather than in the death traps of four distribution centres for the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.

‘Whomever got a bag of flour, got shot in the head’

The bags of flour were all over the ground. Covered in blood.

“There were so many bodies on the ground. After that, a quadcopter came to where we were hiding under the rubble of one of the houses. [The quadcopter] told us to put our hands up and come out. It said ‘you are not allowed to take flour. Keep walking and don’t pick up any of the dead or wounded from the ground."
