Jeremy Bowen: Killings near aid centre will deepen criticism of Israel's new distribution system
Israel's new aid distribution system in Gaza faces criticism after Israeli troops opened fire on Palestinians near a new aid distribution site. Reports describe "total carnage" as civilians looking for food aid were killed. The system, run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation and supported by armed security teams, aims to replace UN-led aid operations but has faced challenges like chaotic distribution and scarcity of supplies. The incident raises concerns about the effectiveness and safety of the new aid system in Gaza.
