The Hamas-run health ministry reports that nearly 100 Palestinians were killed over the past day by Israeli air strikes and shootings. Nearly half were killed on their way to get food from an American-backed aid organization. Debora Patta has more about the risk Palestinians are taking to avoid starving.

A U.S. security contractor working with the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) has alleged that colleagues fired on Palestinians at an aid distribution site, contributing to the risks faced by those seeking food amid ongoing conflict. According to the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry, nearly 100 Palestinians were killed in one day by Israeli airstrikes and shootings, with almost half killed while attempting to access food from an American-backed aid organization.

The contractor, who spoke anonymously, reported witnessing machine gunfire and shots from security personnel at the site. GHF stated that a person heard shouting in the video was removed but provided no further details. Aid experts and critics have raised concerns about GHF's distribution methods, noting that the limited number of aid sites forces large crowds into dangerous conditions, and that the locations of these sites may contribute to mass displacement within Gaza.

U.S. aid contractor says colleagues opened fire on Gazans

The Gaza Health Ministry, run by Hamas, reports nearly 100 Palestinians were killed over the past day by Israeli airstrikes and shootings. Nearly half were killed on their way to get food from an American-backed aid organization. Deborah Pata in East Jerusalem has more about the risk Palestinians are taking to keep from starving. This was the scene at a Gaza Humanitarian Foundation aid site filmed last month by an American security contractor working there and given to our partner, the BBC. Thousands of Palestinians herded into a long, fenced-off corridor and forced to battle it out for food amid bullets and stun grenades. The contractor explained there was machine gunfire from a watchtower and shots from a nearby security guard. Then, the unmistakable sound of American accents. The contractor spoke on condition his identity was concealed. When this guy was shooting into this group, this man dropped to the ground and was motionless. GHF said the person heard shouting in the video had been removed from the site but did not give any other details. The contractor, however, said he brought the incident to the attention of his superiors. And then the leadership said to me, well, you have no way of knowing that person was hit with a bullet. Maybe they tripped. Maybe they were tired and they passed out. The U.S. has approved a direct grant of $30 million for GHF, but the group has not disclosed the rest of its funding. We asked director Johnny Moore earlier this week about reports of more than 600 people killed trying to access aid at their sites. And yet every single day, we wake up to, you know, in the West or our team is operating, you know, simultaneously in the Middle East to this piece of disinformation that is just without any scrutiny whatsoever while we're facing all the scrutiny in the world. But the contractor said they were given explicit rules of engagement. Deb, aid organizations that know how to distribute aid say that the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation is not doing it correctly. What are their specific complaints? Well, John, GHF only has four aid sites. They used to be 400, and this forces aid seekers into a narrow chokehold to collect food. They walk long distances, often returning empty-handed. And other groups like World Food Program send registered recipients a text message to say they will be distributing in their area. Critics also say GHF has weaponized food and it's used as a bargaining chip, essentially to force mass displacement as the sites are all towards the south of Gaza with none in the north, John.
