Euro-Med Monitor has documented shocking testimonies of the Israeli army killing and injuring dozens of Palestinians on Thursday 11 January 2024 on Al-Rashid Street, in the west of Gaza City, who were trying to receive humanitarian aid. The human rights organization demanded that the involved United Nations agencies be held accountable for their failure to guarantee suitable channels for providing the populace with humanitarian aid.

According to the testimonies, Israeli quadcopter drones opened fire on Palestinians who had gathered to receive flour brought by UN trucks. Fifty Palestinians were killed and dozens more were injured during the incident. Testimonies gathered by Euro-Med Monitor indicate that dozens of residents gathered on Al-Rashid Street, which had been devastated by Israeli bulldozers in recent weeks, awaiting the arrival of the trucks carrying flour. The quadcopter drones arrived suddenly, however, and started shooting at the residents.

The surviving residents fled the area and managed to transfer the wounded, while the dead remained on the ground. Later that day, the trucks arrived, and hundreds of residents gathered again in the hope of receiving a share of flour, as hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in the northern Gaza Valley are currently starving for the fourth consecutive month now.

Based on the testimonies received by Euro-Med Monitor, residents were forced to travel up to 10 kilometers to reach the area, while there was no order for aid distribution amid fears of reported casualties as a result of the severe crowding that occurred in the area after the trucks arrived.

          Mostly Factual due to the use of poor sources that have failed fact checks.

          Lol riiiiiiight. Media Bias Fact Check strikes again. Doesn’t sound very factual if they failed fact checks but apparently haven’t passed any?

          UN Watch is quite obviously rabidly pro Israel. Why watch the UN? Because the UN calls out Israel’s bullshit and frequent crimes. They exist to protect Israel. MBFC doesn’t mind that because they have a bias too.

          Edit to add: MBFC says UN Watch is biased to the right (not centre right, just right) and has failed a fact check, but then ranks them “high credibility.” Why? What could this possibly be based on?

      No Video or footage of Hamas killing (1000) people in October 7. Yet many believe it.

      Along with the fact many press has been killed or equipment can’t be charged easily to document war crimes.
