At least 27 Palestinians died while waiting for aid at a distribution centre, after Israeli troops opened fire in Gaza’s southern city of Rafah early on Tuesday, the enclave’s Health Ministry said. “Israeli artillery and aircraft fired shells and gunfire at displaced people as they waited for aid near a humanitarian aid distribution point,” the Palestinian Wafa news agency reported, adding that 90 people were injured. This comes after 31 people were killed on Sunday in a similar incident near a distribution centre run by the disputed US and Israel-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.
