UN releases figures: At least 798 people have been killed at aid points in Gaza

At least 798 people in Gaza have been killed while receiving aid in the past six weeks, the UN human rights office said.

A spokesman for the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights said 615 of the killings - during the period between May 27 and July 7 - were "in the vicinity" of sites run by the controversial US- and Israeli-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), Sky News reports. 

The office said its figures are based on figures from a variety of sources, including hospitals and families in the Gaza Strip, as well as NGOs, its partners on the ground and Hamas-run health authorities.

The GHF has claimed that the figures are “false and misleading.” It has consistently denied that there has been violence in or around its countries.

The organization began distributing food packages to Gaza in late May, after Israel eased an 11-week aid blockade on the coastal territory.

It has four distribution centers, three of which are in the southern Gaza Strip. The sites, kept off-limits to independent media, are guarded by private security contractors and are located in areas where the Israeli military operates.

Palestinian witnesses say Israeli forces repeatedly opened fire on crowds of people going to get help.
