At least 59 Palestinians were killed and 132 injured after the Israeli military opened fire near an aid distribution centre in Gaza, with the Red Cross reporting the highest number of fatalities at its field hospital in Rafah since it began operations. The Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) claimed to have fired 'warning shots' at suspects approaching their troops, but the Red Cross and eyewitnesses reported that many victims had gunshot wounds to the head and chest. The incident has sparked accusations of 'mass murder' and 'genocide' against Israel, which has rejected such claims and denied targeting civilians. The violence is part of the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas, which has resulted in over 57,000 Palestinian deaths since October 2023.
