Palestinian medical sources have confirmed that Israeli attacks have killed at least 34 Palestinians across Gaza, as a key hospital in the south of the besieged enclave remains inaccessible due to ongoing military operations. The Palestinian Red Crescent has urged international organizations to intervene, provide protection for medical sites, and open safe corridors for aid and medical supplies. The situation in Gaza is critical, with thousands of people gathering daily to collect humanitarian aid, which has been severely limited due to Israel's blockade.

Key Takeaways:

34 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks on Saturday, including 8 who were killed in a shooting incident near an aid distribution site west of Rafah in southern Gaza.
Israeli forces have designated the surrounding area of al-Amal Hospital in Khan Younis a "dangerous combat zone", making it inaccessible to patients and medical staff.
The Palestinian Red Crescent has urged international organizations to intervene, provide protection for medical sites, and open safe corridors for aid and medical supplies.
Palestinians have gathered daily since late May at al-Alam roundabout near Rafah to collect humanitarian aid, with thousands attending each day.
The US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) had said its aid centres would remain closed until further notice due to security concerns.
Only a trickle of aid has been allowed into Gaza despite Israel partially lifting a total blockade on humanitarian supplies last month.

34 Palestinians killed in Israeli attacks on Saturday
