A joint investigation conducted by Forensic Architecture and the World Peace Foundation has found at least 64 incidents of Palestinian civilians being attacked by the Israeli army while seeking aid in Gaza, Al Jazeera reports.

The report said that the attacks include 25 incidents recorded at and around food distribution sites of the controversial GHF run by the US and Israel.

The report said that Palestinians were forced to walk an average of six kilometres to arrive at a GHF ration station.

“In the face of well-established humanitarian principles that require that humanitarian aid not be misused for military or political ends, Israel is instrumentalising aid,” the report said.
