• Israeli fire killed at least 34 Palestinians on Monday near Gaza Humanitarian Foundation sites, marking the highest single-day toll since the system began in late May.
• Since the foundation’s launch, health authorities report at least 300 people have been killed and over 2,600 wounded around its three Israeli-guarded aid hubs.
• UN agencies and humanitarian experts have rejected the new system as dangerous and in violation of principles of neutrality and impartiality.
• The Israeli military maintains troops fire warning shots at those approaching positions, but Palestinian witnesses say soldiers shot directly at crowds seeking food.
• Gaza’s civilian population faces severe shortages after a two-month blockade, with UN experts warning of widespread famine risks amid continued hostilities.
