Earlier, a witness on the scene said dozens of people had been killed in the latest deadly episode at a food aid location in Gaza. The Kuwaiti Roundabout in Gaza City has become known as an area where aid trucks distribute food, attracting crowds of people desperate for supplies. “As aid trucks were entering, the Palestinian gunmen continued to shoot as the crowd of Gazans began looting the trucks. Amid a collapse of public authority in Gaza, the arrival of aid trucks has sparked chaos and disorder that often leaves thousands at risk of harm during the distribution. Several deadly attacks by Israeli soldiers on crowds of civilians lining up for aid have been reported in recent weeks.
