United Nations Secretary-General urges intensified efforts to suppress gunfire incidents at the aid center in Gaza
Laid-back, buddy-style chat: Hey buddy, check out the latest scoop — the UN's in a pickle. There've been some questionable shootings at a Gaza aid center, and the bigwig Secretary-General, António Guterres, wants some answers pronto.
Extra Info (for those who love the deets):Gaza Strip, Sunday. Hamas claims that Israel's army shot and killed 31 people and injured 176 more while they were lined up at a US-based humanitarian aid organization's distribution center called GHF. Israel and GHF both deny these allegations, with GHF stating all aid was distributed without any incidents.
Guterres is blown away by the news and reassures us that it's totally unacceptable for civilians to take such risks just to score some grub. He's insisting on some quickie, unbiased inquiry and a crackdown on whoever is responsible for these shenanigans.
Politics Voyage with Greta (Thunberg, obvs): Sailing toward GazaIsrael wasn't too pleased with Guterres' statement, calling it a low blow and accusing him of not sticking it to Hamas like he should. On the other side of the fence, Hamas' Civil Defense Guy, Mahmoud Bassal, told the news crew AFP that Israeli soldiers nailed thousands of civilians with targeted shots.
GHF spoke up and called out Hamas for spreading bogus stories. They claimed all of their aid got handed out on Sunday without a single hiccup.
Israeli forces deny shooting at people near or on the grounds, but they did admit to firing warning shots at suspicious suspects about a kilometer away the previous night.
On Sunday, Israeli army spokesman Effie Defrin shared that Hamas is doing everything they can to squash Israel's aid deliveries. He guaranteed that every claim lobbed against Israeli soldiers will be scrutinized.
Politics Whispers of War: Israel Wants to Expand their OffensiveMultitudes of frightened patients with gunshot wounds rolled into the Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, according to Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) on Monday. Claire Manera, the emergency coordinator for MSF, called the civilian deaths and injuries "avoidable" and slammed the new aid system, saying it's dehumanizing, shady, and ineffective.
Israeli forces kept on pushing forward with their military operations on Monday. ...lookup later: Quote from AFP news agency about 14 people killed, 20 still missing in Israeli attack on a residential building in Jabalia on Monday.
Months ago, a two-month ceasefire came to an end and Israel's rolled out some serious force to knock out Hamas in the Gaza Strip. On Sunday, Israel's Defense Minister, Israel Katz, announced that he ordered the soldiers to keep marching in the Gaza Strip while the peace talks were still in swirls.
