Starving Palestinians pepper-sprayed at GHF aid site in Gaza

Starving Palestinians pepper-sprayed at GHF aid site in Gaza, video shows

Israeli military personnel have pepper-sprayed desperate and starving Palestinian aid seekers at one of the distribution points of the controversial aid agency GHF in Gaza, a video shows.

In the 20-second video verified by Al Jazeera’s fact-checking agency Sanad, Israeli troops were seen scattering a crowd with pepper spray at Shakoush in Gaza’s southern city of Rafah.

The mobile phone video, recorded on July 10 and released on social media late on Saturday, shows three armed soldiers using the pepper spray against the Palestinians at the Israeli and United States-backed GHF aid point.

Men, women and children could be seen running in all directions away from the soldiers – some covering their mouths with their clothes, others frantically rushing to leave the scene with bags of flour hoisted on their backs.

Since the GHF started operating in Gaza in late May, at least 891 people have been killed while trying to get food, the Palestinian Ministry of Health said on Saturday.

A July 15 report by the United Nations found that at least 674 of those people were killed “in the vicinity of GHF sites”.

The highly criticised aid operation has effectively sidelined Gaza’s vast UN-led aid delivery network after Israel eased a more than two-month total blockade on the enclave.

The video of Palestinians being pepper-sprayed came as Israel’s genocidal war in Gaza saw at least 84 more Palestinians killed on Sunday, 73 of them aid seekers, as of 12:30 GMT on Sunday.

On Saturday, 116 Palestinians were killed across the enclave, including at least 38 aid seekers. That number was upgraded on Sunday to 130 people killed and 495 wounded.

Mahmoud Mokeimar, a Palestinian in Gaza, said he was walking with a crowd of people, mostly young men, towards the GHF hub when Israeli troops fired warning shots and soon opened fire.

“The occupation opened fire at us indiscriminately,” he told The Associated Press news agency.

Mokeimar said he saw at least three motionless bodies on the ground and many wounded people fleeing.

“Unless Israel allows more food into Gaza, Palestinians have no choice but to risk their lives just for something to eat,” said Al Jazeera’s Hind Khoudary, reporting from Deir el-Balah in Gaza.

“Parents go to the GHF distribution sites to risk getting killed or leave their children starving. There is no option in the market. Everything is very expensive.”

Meanwhile, Palestinians, including infants and toddlers, continue to die from starvation across Gaza.

Four-year-old Razan Abu Zaher died of complications from malnutrition and hunger, a source at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Gaza City told Al Jazeera on Sunday.

On Saturday, the director of al-Shifa Hospital said two Palestinians had died of starvation, including a 35-day-old infant.

On Friday, the Health Ministry said starving Palestinians are arriving in hospital emergency departments across Gaza in “unprecedented numbers”, as Israel continues to severely restrict access to food in Gaza and shoot people seeking aid.

  1. Sampah from Al Jezebel. None of them look remotely close to “starving”.

    Pepper spray is common in crowd control, when there are agitators.

    Also if the IDF want to genocide Gaza, pepper spray is not the way to do it. F16 boms are more effective.

    1. Crowd controls, wow…!

      Mfer, there were many other aid distribution centres/outlets used to distributing foods, medication & other necessities in Gaza.

      There were NEVER any riots or rampasses happened before. Neither were there any killings occurred during these aid processes.

      What makethe GHF so special that those zionist soldierboys needed to Lil to enforce props aid distribution order?

      Mfer, there is ONE & ONLY ONE AIM - to continuing frustration those starved Gazans & to kill those who still have strength to rise against those zionist oppressions.

      Mfer,u should swallow yr own lying sampah & die waylaid!

      Wakakakaka…if ever those zionists r using F16 to bomb those starving Gazans queueing for aids, all those bleeding-hearted outside supports, financial, military & perhaps pure farts from people like u, would disappear like thin air. By then ur loving zionist state WOULD be toasted charcoal!

  2. If everyone simply follow their own Buku Suci (or cerita dongeng if you wish) then peace will be instant.

    Christians ikut the Christian Bible
    Isaacs follow the Hebrew Bible
    Ishmaels follow the Quran
    (Note: so far no Canaan or Jebusite Bible has been found)

    The Christian and Hebrew Bibles specifically name Israel as the Land belonging to Isaacs. OTOH, the Quran does not mention "Palestine" or "Palestinian" even once. When "Palestinians" pray they face Mecca, not Jerusalem. So why must Ishmaels rebut rebut for land which their own Buku Suci says belong to somebody else? Very aneh.

    But let me sagest reason: Because Isaacs are involved.

    99.999% of the land is not enough. It must be 100% GENOCIDE, From The River To The Sea. From Morocco to Pakistan (From Atlantic Ocean to Yindian Ocean) the Isaacs have already been GENOCIDED. Now for the last 0.001%

    Note: many other minorities also GENOCIDED by Ishmaels include Christians, Coptics, Yazidis, Bahais, Zoarastrians...semua dah hilang. LGBTABC juga.

    1. mfer, have u checked or used ChatGPT to find out how many people that the past zionists have killed/decimated? Or using ur newly discovered favorite - genocides.

      Quick, start with that grandmother fairytale of Solomon & David sagas.

  3. Even if we believe Harm-ass reporting, 891 people have been killed since end May, ie nearly 2 months. At this rate the GENOCIDE of Gaza will be completed in 690 years. IDF must be the most inefficient Genocider in history.

    Gullible Guppies Buka Mulut Dan Telan Sampah.

    1. Indeed, IDF must be the most inefficient Genocider in history bcoz of their bloody own handicap of depending on Yank & other old Europe bleedinghearted nations.

  5. In 1982 Isaac gave up Sinai to Egypt in pursuit of Peace. Till today the peace has stood. Then in 2005 Isaac gave up Gaza to the “Palestinians” in exchange for peace, hopefully. A Two-State solution lah. At that time the population of Gaza was about 1.3 million. But instead of accepting peace Gazans waged war, non-stop, culminating in 2023 Oct 7 Holocaust.

    But like WW2 Holocaust perpetrators were hunted down and punished, the perpetrators of Oct 7 were also hunted down.

    Never Again.

    1. Walau-eh, did yr mfering zionist hist-story tell u that, in both the Sinai & Gaza Strip withdrawal by the zionist state, they did it for PEACE!

      Mfer, how about overstretched military deployments & under international pressures?

      Oooop… in yr mfering zionism infested mind, NO such thing could be happened under the mfering might of the zionist state!

      Tan kuku lah, mfer.

      Wakakakaka…

      'WW2 Holocaust perpetrators were hunted down and punished'????!!!

      U do believe in zionist farts!

      How many zionist elites who corroborated with the Nazis in exercising the holocaust were been hunted down?

      Mfer, check Rothschild, Sassoon etc etc

      Ooop… they bought their sins out by contributing humongous money to placating those other Europe rejected zionism extremists. Especially getting them a place to rebuilt their grandmother's fairytale kingdom of choice.
