Magdy reported from Cairo.NUSEIRAT, Franja de Gaza (AP) — El caos estalló nuevamente el jueves en la Franja de Gaza cuando decenas de miles de palestinos desesperados intentaron recoger alimentos de sitios de distribución administrados por una fundación respaldada por Estados Unidos e Israel. Múltiples testigos informaron de un descontrol de personas tomando ayuda, y dijeron que las tropas israelíes dispararon para controlar a las multitudes.

En el centro de Gaza, un video de The Associated Press mostraba bombas de humo surcando el aire alrededor de un centro de distribución, y se escucharon disparos mientras un tanque israelí se movía cerca. Testigos dijeron que las tropas israelíes dispararon los proyectiles para dispersar a los palestinos después de que el centro se quedara sin suministros el jueves.“Vine a buscar un saco de harina... una lata de sardinas o cualquier cosa”, comentó Mahmoud Ismael, un hombre con muletas que dijo haber caminado kilómetros para llegar al centro, sólo para irse con las manos vacías.
