DEIR AL-BALAH (GAZA STRIP): At least 85 Palestinians were killed while trying to reach food at locations across Gaza on Sunday, the territory’s Health Ministry said, on the deadliest day yet for aid-seekers in over 21 months of war.
There was new alarm as Israel’s military issued evacuation orders for areas of central Gaza, one of the few areas where it has rarely operated with ground troops and where many international organisations trying to distribute aid are located.
One aid group said several groups’ offices were told to evacuate immediately. There was no immediate Israeli comment on that.
