Israeli Strikes on Gaza Kill 9, Including Driver Delivering Food for U.S. Charity

In Gaza, health officials report at least nine Palestinians have been killed by Israeli airstrikes and gunfire over the last 24 hours. Among the victims is Ahmad Nasser Saleem, a driver who was delivering food for the U.S.-based nonprofit World Central Kitchen. In Khan Younis, an Israeli missile hit a tent for displaced people in the al-Mawasi area, killing at least four people, including a 10-year-old child. One survivor said he was asleep when the strikes hit. Oday Abu Nahel: “We were staying in the tents on the understanding that this area was safe, and people live in tents. By God, I was asleep when suddenly a missile struck. We came here and found the impact. There were martyrs and wounded. People were carrying them to ambulances, and they loaded them onto carts and took them all to the hospitals. A friend of mine, whose tent was next to mine, was injured, and his mother was injured, too.” www.democracynow.org
