DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — Witnesses and health workers say at least 31 Palestinians have been shot dead in Gaza while seeking food aid. Separately, hospitals say Israeli airstrikes killed at least 28 Palestinians overnight and into Saturday. The Red Cross said its field hospital saw its largest influx of dead in more than a year of operation after the shootings. Israel’s military says it fired warning shots toward people it said were behaving suspiciously. The 21-month war has left much of Gaza’s population of over 2 million reliant on outside aid while food security experts warn of famine. There is no sign of a breakthrough in ceasefire talks.
