Palestinians say Israeli forces killed scores of people trying to reach food aid in Khan Younis on Tuesday in the deadliest attack of recent weeks on hungry crowds attempting to get food in Gaza.

Israeli forces targeted people waiting for aid at Al-Tahlia roundabout in Khan Younis, says Gaza Health Ministry - Anadolu Ajansı

Israel’s military killed at least 95 people in Gaza in the past 24 hours, according to Gaza’s health ministry.

The advisory comes as a result of "armed conflict, terrorism, and civil unrest" in Israel. The West Bank and Gaza are also listed as "do not travel" areas.

Israel and Iran launched fresh attacks on each other late on Saturday, stoking fears of a wider conflict after Israel expanded its surprise campaign against its main rival with a strike on the world's biggest gas field.

A new program for getting desperately needed food into the hands of starving Palestinians in Gaza is only days old, but it’s already mired in chaos and tragedy.
