Gaza’s al-Shifa hospital struggles as Israeli troops fire on hungry aid-seekers

يوليو 20, 2025 - 19:03
The Israeli military has ordered new evacuations in central Gaza, forcing Palestinians toward al-Mawasi, a so-called "safe zone" still facing regular attacks. Leaflets dropped over Deir el-Balah demanded immediate departures, including from areas housing aid clinics and warehouses. Ongoing Israeli strikes killed nearly 90 Palestinians on Sunday alone, with six more dying near a contested aid distribution point in the south. In northern Gaza, troops fired on crowds waiting for food trucks, leaving dozens dead or wounded. At al-Shifa Medical Complex, victims arrived on carts after being shot while queueing for flour near Zikim area, overwhelming under-resourced hospitals.
