Unimaginable Suffering In Gaza

Former GHF guard Anthony Aguilar has spoken to Al Jazeera about the “abhorrent” and “unnecessary” deadly tactics he witnessed firsthand at the aid sites run by the controversial U.S. & Israel backed contractor. He explained that the Israeli military controls the crowd “using automatic machine-gun fire, artillery rounds, mortar rounds, and at times, tank fire from the Merkava tank against unarmed, starving civilians, women, children, the disabled”. When the aid seekers are allowed to enter the site, they’re “released in one giant, massive wave, unorganized, chaotic stampeding”, while the Israeli military shoots at their feet, over their heads and sometimes into the crowd to control them.

A security vacuum in Gaza has given rise to gangs and lawlessness across the Strip.

Gaza's Police services have been decimated by the war, and international peacekeeping forces have been barred from entering.

Al Jazeera’s Tareq Abu Azzoum has been documenting the absence of law enforcement from Deir Al Balah.
