"They leave them (humanitarian aid) in a courtyard that is around 15 to 20 donum (about 3 to 5 acres). They throw the goods there and the goods that are placed there are not enough for roughly 2,000 people, while around 10,000 had gathered there. Two thirds of us went through at the risk of death. I swear, it’s like we died 500 times in an hour. I swear, there are martyrs left inside there that no one can reach, and I swear two thirds of the people who went inside (the distribution area) left empty-handed."

Until when will we continue to live in humiliation, oppression, and hunger?"

STORYLINE:
Palestinian health officials and witnesses say Israeli forces fired on people as they headed toward an aid distribution site on Tuesday, killing at least 27, in the third such incident in three days.
The army said it fired "near a few individual suspects" who left the designated route, approached its forces and ignored warning shots.
The near-daily shootings have come after an Israeli and U.S.-backed foundation established aid distribution points inside Israeli military zones, a system it says is designed to circumvent Hamas.
The United Nations has rejected the new system, saying it doesn’t address Gaza’s mounting hunger crisis and allows Israel to use aid as a weapon.
The Israeli military said it was looking into reports of casualties on Tuesday.
It previously said it fired warning shots at suspects who approached its forces early Sunday and Monday, when health officials and witnesses said 34 people were killed.
The military denies opening fire on civilians or blocking them from reaching the aid sites.
