Israeli forces kill 17 people in latest Gaza aid massacre

At least 17 Palestinians have been killed and dozens more wounded after Israeli forces opened fire on a crowd of displaced Palestinians waiting for food near a distribution site operated by the Israel-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation in central Gaza, local health authorities said.

Doctors said casualties were sent to the Al-Awda Hospital in central Gaza and Al-Quds Hospital in the north.

Massacres of Palestinians near GHF sites have become almost a daily occurrence since the organisation started operating at the end of May, with hundreds of people being killed and wounded by Israeli troops.
