An Israeli attack close to an aid distribution point run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (FGH) killed at least 30 people in Rafah, Palestinian news agency Wafa and Hamas affiliated media vehicles reported on Sunday (1st).
There was no immediate comments from Israel about the reported attack, which, according to Wafa, injured more than 115 people. FGH, also supported by Israel, recently began operating in Gaza.
Although some Palestinians expressed concern about their neutrality and biometric controls and others that Israel said it would employ, Israeli authorities said that FGH allowed recipient screening to exclude anyone who is linked to Hamas.
On May 28, Hamas accused Israel of killing at least three Palestinians and injuring 46 close to one of FGH distribution sites, the accusation that the aid group denied.
The Israeli army also said that its troops fired warning shots in the outside of the complex to restore control, while thousands of Palestinians ran to a place of help distribution.
