Gaza’s Civil Defense Service announced the deaths of 20 people last night, when a truck carrying food was overthrown in the crowd.

“The truck was overthrown while hundreds of civilians waited for food help in the Nussirat zone in the center of Gauze“Political defense spokesman Mahmoud Basal told the French Agency.

“The truck had been forced by the Israeli army to use dangerous roads, which had previously been bombed,” and were in poor condition, he explained.

“Despite the recent limited approval of some trucks with help, occupation (ed: Israel) deliberately prevents safe passage and distribution of this aid. It obliges drivers to cross the roads full of hungry civilians waiting for weeks of essentials, “he said in a statement issued this morning by the Gaza government controlled by Hamas.

This “deliberate and criminal behavior often leads to rushing to trucks of desperate people who hardly take their cargo,” the government also explained, which also referred to 20 dead civilians and dozens of injuries.

Asked by the French Agency, the Israeli army announced that it was controlling this information.
