GAZA (Palestine Foundation Information Center) Gaza’s Government Media Office (GMO) said on Tuesday that the Israeli occupation army killed three desperate Palestinian civilians and wounded 46 others at the American food distribution site in Rafah, while many civilians in the area were reported missing.
According to Al Jazeera satellite channel, US security contractors – working for an Israeli-US-backed foundation – lost control at the site shortly after it opened.
Palestinian Center for the Missing and Forcibly Disappeared said that several citizens disappeared on Tuesday afternoon after they went to one of the US aid distribution points in Rafah, south of Gaza.
“A number of civilians went there but have not returned to their homes, and there is still no confirmed information about their fate, the center said on Tuesday a few hours after the incident happened.
The center held the Israeli army fully responsible for the disappearance of those citizens, calling for immediately giving information about their fate and working on ensuring a safe and fair process for the distribution of humanitarian aid.
The center warned that such incidents may happen again in the midst of security chaos and the absence of protection guarantees for civilians.
