Hundreds of Gazans die while trying to access aid

Nearly 800 people have been killed while trying to access humanitarian aid in the Gaza Strip, the UN human rights office (OHCHR) said on Friday.

Speaking at a press briefing in Geneva, OHCHR spokesperson Ravina Shamdasani said that as of July 7, the OHCHR had documented 798 killings in aid distribution areas in Gaza. “Including 615 in the vicinity of the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) sites and 183, presumably on the routes of aid convoys,” she said.

She also noted that most of the casualties resulted from gunshot injuries.

Shamdasani said that such a situation is unacceptable, yet it continues.
