At least 20 people were killed and over 150 wounded in Gaza when a crowd gathered to collect aid supplies, with Palestinian officials and witnesses blaming Israel for the attack. However, Israel’s military denied responsibility, stating that Palestinian gunmen opened fire first. The incident occurred amidst a hunger crisis in Gaza exacerbated by aid obstruction. The United States and other nations have been delivering aid by air and sea due to limited land access. Israel has rejected claims of restricting aid. Efforts are ongoing to negotiate a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas as the situation in Gaza deteriorates.
