The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation says it distributed 35,520 boxes of food at three sites in central and southern Gaza today.

The US- and Israeli-backed foundation says each box contains meals for 5.5 people for 3.5 days.

However, its contents are largely dry food products that require community kitchens or cooking equipment to prepare, which are very scarce in war-ravaged Gaza.

GHF says aid was distributed without incident, but Palestinian media reported that 20 people were killed while en route to one of the distribution sites, in what has become a near-daily allegation.

The IDF said its troops fired warning shots at Palestinians who approached forces “and posed a threat” in the Netzarim Corridor area. The military said it was aware of the reports of casualties by its gunfire in the area, but “the reported number of casualties is inconsistent with the information available to the IDF.”
