Sunday’s attacks are part of a growing trend of Israeli assaults on Palestinians gathering for food and aid. Since May 27, at least 891 people have been killed and 5,754 injured while seeking humanitarian assistance, according to official reports.
On Saturday alone, Israeli attacks claimed the lives of over 130 Palestinians, including 38 people waiting for aid and three children who died from severe malnutrition.
