Dozens of Palestinians were shot and killed by the Israeli military.

The Palestinians were making their way to a distribution site Sunday to receive aid from the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.

31 Palestinians were killed and the health ministry said that more than 200 casualties had reached hospitals, including dozens with serious injuries. It added that all of those killed had been shot in the head or chest.

The Israeli military said it’s forces “did not fire at civilians while they were near or within” the aid site. But a military source acknowledged that israeli forces fired toward individuals at nearly 1,100 yards away, before the aid site opened.

“Findings from an initial inquiry indicate that the IDF did not fire at civilians while they were near or within the humanitarian aid distribution site and that reports to this effect are false,” Israeli forces said.
