Aid Site Massacres: Barbaric ‘israeli’ Strikes Result in 75 Palestinian Fatalities Near U.S. Gaza Aid Facilities
The Health Ministry in Gaza has reported that 75 individuals have been killed and more than 400 have been wounded as a result of Israeli attacks near aid zones, amidst the continuous strikes occurring across the Gaza Strip.
The Ministry of Health in Gaza reported on Monday that the death toll of Palestinians near aid distribution centers has increased to 75. This comes after 35 individuals lost their lives in a single day on Sunday. Since May 27, over 400 people have sustained injuries in these areas, following Israel’s decision to designate specific zones for the distribution of humanitarian aid.
Amid increasing international condemnation, Israel’s actions in the Gaza Strip persist, with reports indicating a continued campaign impacting civilians and dismantling vital infrastructure.
Reports from Al Mayadeen’s correspondent indicate that Israeli airstrikes resulted in the deaths of four Palestinians in the al-Faluja area, located west of the Jabalia refugee camp in the northern section of the besieged region.
In central Gaza, an Israeli aerial strike resulted in the death of three municipal workers after targeting a municipal vehicle in Al-Zawayda town. Additionally, multiple injuries were reported in Al-Barka, located south of Deir al-Balah, due to another Israeli airstrike.
In the southern Gaza Strip, a Palestinian lost their life when an Israeli drone targeted the Sidra intersection in Abasan al-Kabira. Concurrently, Israeli military bulldozers took down the perimeter wall of the European Hospital located in al-Fukhari, east of Khan Younis, posing additional risks to essential medical services.
The Financial Times reports that more than 80% of Gaza, already among the globe’s most densely populated regions prior to October 7, 2023, is now designated as Israeli military zones, accompanied by evacuation directives.
Adding to the complexities of the situation, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has signaled intentions to consolidate Gaza’s population into a restricted southern region adjacent to the Egyptian border. This move comes alongside declarations rendering the rest of the territory off-limits.
International observers have raised alarms regarding “Israel’s” compelled relocation of Palestinians from Gaza into a desolate area lacking essential infrastructure, including water, electricity, and medical services. This action is being criticized as potential ethnic cleansing. Palestinians are increasingly interpreting this move as a prelude to a complete expulsion from their territory.
Israeli far-right minister Bezalel Smotrich stated during a conference in May that within a few months, Gaza would face destruction. He emphasized that Palestinians residing in Gaza would be compelled to relocate to the southern region of the Strip.
Northern Gaza has largely been reduced to rubble by Israeli actions, as the conflict has now spread for weeks into the southern region near the Morag corridor. This area, named after an Israeli settlement that functioned between 1972 and Israel’s 2005 withdrawal, has experienced prolonged periods of costly and violent occupation.
The remaining area is devoid of essential resources necessary for sustaining human life, as the once-thriving border town of Rafah has largely been reduced to rubble. The surrounding sandy terrain has been stripped of its vegetation. Additionally, the region faces a complete cutoff from fresh water and electricity supplies.
The Morag corridor currently separates the devastated remnants of Rafah from Khan Younis, both of which have been emptied of their civilian populations by “Israel” through forced evacuations, leaving these urban centers abandoned in the aftermath of military activities.
