Israeli forces have killed at least 27 Palestinians across Gaza since dawn, most of them civilians waiting for humanitarian aid. Six people were killed at the Zikim crossing in the northwest, eight others died in Khan Yunis while waiting for assistance, and two more were killed near the GHF site in the south. Earlier, four were killed near the Nitzanim crossing, while in Shujaiya, four civilians were targeted in one attack and three more just an hour earlier.

The attacks paint a grim picture of Gaza’s reality, where the streets resemble scenes from a horror film, bodies lying unclaimed, homes reduced to rubble, and children, women, and elderly residents enduring unbearable conditions. Residential areas and supposed civilian shelters remain under fire, with deliberate targeting of families awaiting aid, suggesting a calculated intent to harm the most vulnerable.

Alongside the bombardment, Israel’s blockade continues to choke off food, medicine, and fuel, enforcing a policy of starvation that deepens the already catastrophic humanitarian crisis. These actions stand in flagrant violation of international law, leaving Gaza’s population trapped in a cycle of death, destruction, and despair, clinging to survival while the world looks on.
