Al Jazeera reports at least two Palestinians were killed today as they sought aid at a distribution site run by the shadowy U.S.- and Israeli-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. The latest killings of aid seekers at GHF sites came as hungry and displaced Palestinians scrambled for extremely limited supplies of food aid dropped into Gaza by air. This is Abu Mohammed al-Omar, who rushed to grab food from a pallet of aid that parachuted to the ground in northern Gaza.

Abu Mohammed al-Omar: “I got lentil and tomato paste, as you can see, for a family of six. We are dying. You can see the people. They get something, and it’s not enough — one pallet for a million people. This is what I got. It ripped open. We want to feed our children.”

The head of the World Food Programme criticized airdrops over Gaza as entirely inadequate. WFP Executive Director Cindy McCain wrote on social media, “We can’t airdrop our way out of an unfolding famine. Not in Gaza. 500,000 people are starving TODAY. The only way to get food to them, at scale, is by land.”

Meanwhile, Gaza’s Interior Ministry says falling pallets of aid have killed and maimed people on the ground, including Oday Al-Quraan, a Palestinian nurse reportedly crushed to death when a crate fell on him on Monday.
