Hamas reports that more than 70 Palestinians were killed and 250 injured in an Israeli attack on people waiting for food aid near al-Rashid Street, south of Gaza City, this morning. Al Jazeera reports the news. The dead and injured, including women and children, were taken to al-Shifa hospital in the northern Gaza Strip. The Israeli army, however, gives a different version of the facts: a fight broke out around the trucks, with looted equipment. “During the incident, dozens of Gazans were injured in the crush,” Israeli army sources told The Times of Israel. Meanwhile, the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Turk, responded harshly to the Israeli Prime Minister's threats of a ground attack on the town of Rafah in the Gaza Strip. According to Turk, this attack would go against the decision of the highest court of the United Nations, the International Court of Justice.

“A new dimension of nightmare”
“I do not see how such an operation can be compatible with the provisional restrictive measures issued by the International Court of Justice,” he declared before the Human Rights Council, to which he submitted the report of his services on the situation in Palestine. territories. Last January, the International Court of Justice ruled that Israel must take effective and immediate measures to prevent acts of genocide against Palestinians from being committed in the Gaza Strip. The Hague Court was called by South Africa to express its opinion on a possible violation by Israel of the International Convention for the Prevention of Genocide. And he had recognized – faced with the “inhumane” conditions in which the majority of the population of Gaza has been reduced for weeks – the need to impose a series of precautionary measures on Israel. From now on, “the prospect of an Israeli ground attack on Rafah would give a new dimension to the nightmare inflicted on the inhabitants of Gaza”, denounced Turk.
