Israeli Fire Kills 67 Near UN Aid Trucks in Northern Gaza

At least 67 individuals have been killed in northern Gaza after Israeli forces opened fire on a crowd waiting for humanitarian aid on Sunday, according to the Palestinian health ministry. The incident occurred in al-Sudaniya, northwest of Gaza City, where individuals were desperately seeking assistance amid a severe humanitarian crisis.
The total number of Palestinians who have died while attempting to access humanitarian aid has now reached 891, with over 5,754 reported injuries. The ongoing blockade imposed by Israel has led to a catastrophic situation for the population of the Gaza Strip. Health officials warn that hundreds of people are at immediate risk of death due to starvation. Hospitals are currently overwhelmed with patients suffering from dizziness and exhaustion caused by severe food shortages.
The health ministry has issued dire warnings, stating, “We warn that hundreds of people whose bodies have wasted away are at risk of imminent death due to hunger.” Tragically, reports from the Wafa news agency confirmed the death of a four-year-old girl named Razan Abu Zaher, who succumbed to complications from acute malnutrition on Sunday.
Escalating Humanitarian Crisis
The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) has expressed concern over a significant rise in child malnutrition. Between March and June, UNRWA health centers conducted nearly 74,000 screenings for children under five, revealing approximately 5,500 cases of severe acute malnutrition. Among these, over 800 children were classified as critically malnourished.
In light of the worsening conditions, Pope Leo addressed the humanitarian crisis during his Angelus prayer on Sunday. He condemned the “barbarity of war” and expressed deep sorrow over an Israeli strike on the Holy Family Church in Gaza City, which resulted in the deaths of three individuals, including the parish priest, and several injuries. The attack occurred on Thursday, damaging the church’s roof and facade.
During his remarks, the Pope called on the international community to uphold humanitarian laws and protect civilians, emphasizing the need to prevent collective punishment and the indiscriminate use of force. His previous statement regarding the violence was criticized for being “vague” and lacking direct reference to Israel.
Casualties and Displacement
Since the onset of conflict in October 2023, reports indicate that at least 58,895 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza. The vast majority of the population has also been displaced, highlighting the urgent need for international assistance and intervention.
As the situation continues to deteriorate, the international community faces mounting pressure to address the humanitarian crisis and facilitate access to aid for those in desperate need. The events of Sunday serve as a stark reminder of the ongoing suffering experienced by civilians in Gaza, caught in the crossfire of prolonged conflict.
