In Gaza, the Palestinian Health Ministry reports Israeli attacks on Tuesday killed at least 50 Palestinians and wounded 110 others. Overnight, the director of the besieged Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza warned 85 injured Palestinians are at imminent risk of death after an Israeli attack damaged the hospital’s upper floors. Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya said the hospital had received a large influx of children with signs of malnutrition and is facing an “extreme catastrophe.”

In the southern Gaza Strip, Palestinian security forces have shot and killed 20 people accused of an organized effort to loot convoys delivering desperately needed aid into Gaza. Monday’s killings came two days after armed gangs violently looted nearly 100 trucks carrying food provided by the United Nations. A spokesperson for the U.N.’s agency for Palestinian refugees said Israeli authorities had instructed the convoy to use an unfamiliar route, on short notice, ahead of the ambush. Drop Site News reports the Israeli military has systematically targeted Palestinian security forces charged with protecting aid shipments, while allowing armed gunmen to attack aid convoys in areas under Israeli control.

On Tuesday, desperate Palestinians queued at a soup kitchen in Khan Younis, hoping for a meal, after a shortage of flour forced a main bakery in central Gaza to halt operations.

Tamam Abu Raddeh: “We’re all hungry. We’re all hungry. There’s no flour. It’s been a month that we don’t have flour, frying oil or sugar. We want some tea to drink. We want to make bread. We are hungry and need food and beverage. It is shameful what they are doing to the people.”
