- GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE — JULY 30, 2025: Israeli forces struck Palestinians waiting to receive humanitarian aid near the Zikim area in the northwestern Gaza Strip on Wednesday, June 30, killing at least 30 and injuring 150 others.

Over 42 Palestinians, including 39 aid seekers, were killed and dozens of others injured in a new wave of Israeli airstrikes across the Gaza Strip.

According to the latest figures released by the Health Ministry, at least 1,239 people were killed and over 8,152 injured by Israeli army fire while seeking aid in Gaza since May 27.

The Israeli army, rejecting international calls for a ceasefire, has pursued a brutal offensive on Gaza since Oct. 7, 2023, killing more than 60,100 Palestinians. The relentless bombardment has devastated the enclave and led to food shortages.

On Monday, Israeli rights groups B’Tselem and Physicians for Human Rights-Israel accused Israel of committing genocide in Gaza, citing the systematic destruction of Palestinian society and the deliberate dismantling of the territory’s healthcare system.

Last November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.

Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave.
