At least 16 Palestinian aid seekers were among the 29 killed by the latest Israeli army fire in Gaza Thursday, local health officials said.
The 16 people were killed and dozens more were injured in Israeli gunfire while waiting for food near an aid distribution point in the Netzarim Corridor in central Gaza.
Seven more people lost their lives and several others were injured when an Israeli drone hit near a tent for displaced people in the Shati refugee camp in western Gaza City, the source added.
Six civilians were also killed in separate attacks in Gaza City, medics said.
According to the Gaza Government Media Office, 300 aid seekers have been killed and 2,649 injured by Israeli army fire near distribution points since Israel launched a new aid collection system in the Palestinian territory on May 27.
