Haaretz, the longest running newspaper in Israel, reports on Israeli Army murder of starving civilians seeking food in Gaza:

IDF officers and soldiers told Haaretz they were ordered to fire at unarmed crowds near food distribution sites in Gaza, even when no threat was present. Hundreds of Palestinians have been killed, prompting the military prosecution to call for a review into possible war crimes.

Humanitarian Situation Update #304
Gaza Strip
9 July 2025
Key Highlights
In Gaza, strikes on people sheltering in schools and tents and those seeking food, water and other assistance continue to be reported, resulting in mass casualties.
Hospitals face imminent shutdown as fuel stocks run out, following a total ban on fuel entry for about 130 days.
Nearly one in three people are going entire days without eating and more people are at risk of starvation, a new assessment finds.
First responders, health workers, and aid workers continue to deliver food and other assistance under intolerable conditions, facing hunger, water scarcity and threats to their personal safety – just like everyone else in Gaza.
Older persons face extreme risks amid ongoing hostilities, often left without protection, essential support, or access to necessities for survival.
Water scarcity is deepening due to the lack of fuel, spare parts for repairs, ongoing insecurity, and the inaccessibility of most water and sanitation facilities.
