GAZA: Gaza’s civil defense agency said Israeli forces killed at least 36 Palestinians on Saturday, six of them in a shooting near a US-backed aid distribution center. The shooting deaths were the latest reported near the aid center run by the Gaza Humanitarian Fund (GHF) in the southern district of Rafah and came after it resumed distributions following a brief suspension in the wake of similar deaths earlier this week.

Dozens of people were killed and injured near an aid site run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, a Trump administration-backed aid group.

The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), which began distributing aid last week, has closed all its centres.
