A humanitarian crisis escalates in Gaza as at least 34 Palestinians lost their lives in deadly incidents near food distribution centers complemented by Israeli and US support, according to the local Health Ministry.

Witnesses report that Israeli troops, in an attempt to disperse crowds, opened fire on Palestinians trying to reach these centers. The ongoing violence plagues access to essential food resources, underscoring the deteriorating situation in the region.

Despite the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation's attempts to mitigate risks by adjusting distribution center operations, the conflict surrounding the delivery system continues to provoke international outrage. Humanitarian organizations criticize the new system, arguing it does not meet Gaza's needs and allows geopolitical tensions to impact aid distribution.
