RAFAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — Health officials and witnesses in Gaza say at least 31 people have been killed and over 170 wounded while on their way to receive food aid. Witnesses say Israeli forces fired on crowds around a kilometer from an aid site run by an Israeli-backed foundation. It’s the deadliest incident yet around the new aid distribution system. It has operated for less than a week. Israel’s military says its forces did not fire at civilians near or within the site but fired warning shots at suspects. The foundation says it delivered aid at its sites “without incident.”
