Dozens of people were killed or wounded on Monday as crowds rushed toward food distribution points and airdropped parcels in Gaza Strip, according to local residents. Many of the casualties were taken to Al-Awda Hospital after being directly targeted in the area near the Netzarim Corridor, a military buffer zone established by Israeli soldiers in central Gaza during the war. Among the wounded was Youssef Al-Zouatneh, who said he came under direct fire while trying to collect food. "I was heading to Netzarim to get something to eat. We weren't going there to fight or kill anyone. We were just going to get food. On the way, they opened fire on us directly. Shots aimed at the head, at the chest and above. They wanted to kill us. But thank God, by the grace of our Lord, the bullet grazed my head and exited from the other side. Israel has no intention other than killing people. They lure people in just to kill them," said Al-Zouatneh. Another resident, Sabreen Shaheen, said the distribution sites have become deadly traps. "We don't want these aid distribution points. These are death traps. People either return carrying aid or come back as corpses to their families. We plead: open the crossings. Let us receive aid through official institutions, public places, camps, or local neighborhoods. What's happening to us is cruel. We don't want the American aid points; we demand their closure. Open the crossings, just open the crossings. That's all we're asking for," she said. SHOTLIST: Gaza Strip - Aug 4, 2025 1. Various of local residents getting food at food distribution points; 2.
