Hisham, 19, shot while trying to get food

Thirty-two Palestinians were killed by Israeli troops on Saturday, July 19, as they tried to get food from the US-sponsored Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.

One of them was Hisham, 19-year-old son of  Monzer Fesifes. "He went to bring food from the failed US, Zionist aid to feed us," said his father.

Sanaa al-Jaberi, a 55-year-old woman, said she saw many dead and wounded as she fled the area.

"We shouted: 'food, food,' but they didn't talk to us. They just opened fire," she said.

More than 1,000 Palestinians have been killed trying to get food, according to the United Nations human rights office.

Israel banned food distribution by the United Nations after accusing Hamas of stealing the aid provided by the United Nations and other international organizations. The government has used that claim as its main rationale for restricting food from entering Gaza.

But the Israeli military never found proof that Hamas systematically stole aid from the U.N., according to a New York Times report published July 26. The Times said its sources were two senior Israeli military officials and two other Israelis involved in the matter.
