Common Dreams reports: “‘The Witkoff Massacre’: Hundreds Killed or Wounded as Israeli Forces Open Fire on Gaza Food Aid Site.”
Ryan Grim of Drop Site News notes: “Doctors treated more than 100 people wounded in a massacre the IDF says didn’t happen,” leaving Israeli denials “in tatters.” See Doctors Without Borders (Médecins Sans Frontières, MSF) report on “Palestinians near the Rafah Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) distribution hub, where dozens were killed and hundreds injured” from Drop Site News.
Wikileaks reports: “The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) is financially backed by Israel’s Mossad and Ministry of Defense, according to Israeli opposition politician Avigdor Lieberman.”
Drop Site News is also reporting: “At least 70 residential towers were destroyed in Gaza City in the last 48 hours.”
Muhammad Shehadam, a visiting fellow with the European Council on Foreign Relations posted a thread on “Conclusive evidence of Israel running the very criminal gangs looting aid in Gaza.”
United Nations Secretary General António Guterres said today: “I am appalled by the reports of Palestinians killed and injured while seeking aid in Gaza yesterday.” Last year, Guterres stated: “We have failed the people of Gaza.”
The following have been fasting since May 22 outside the U.S. Mission to the UN, just across the street from UN headquarters in New York.
Their demands are: 1) Full humanitarian aid to Gaza under UN authority and 2) No more U.S. weapons to Israel.
