I never thought I would die for a box

Khaled al-Lahham, 36, lived in a tent in al-Mawasi

Gaza. He had a family of 10 on his shoulders

. When he first received the aid package on May 27, he felt a surge of hope.

That's why he ran again on Sunday morning in the hope of two handfuls of food. With friends. But that day a terrible incident happened. Before he could reach the relief center at Rafah's Al-Alam roundabout, there was a sudden sound of gunfire. Panic spread all around. Along with that, people screamed. A bullet went through my leg, said Khaled.

Khaled couldn't even get out of the car.

Later, a friend of his came back and took him to the hospital. "I never thought I would die for a box of food," Khaled said in a sobbing voice from his hospital bed. Al Jazeera.

On the other hand, 13-year-old Yazan Musleh lies on a bed inside a tent at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, Gaza. A large white bandage covers his emaciated body. Bullet wounds cover his body. His father, Ihab, sits next to him. The look of terror is still clear on his face.

Yazan was also injured in the attack on Sunday. They walked about an hour and a half from the al-Mawasi area of ​​Khan Yunis to the relief center in Rafah. Seeing the crowd, Yab told the two boys to wait on a higher ground a little further away. The Israelis also attacked there.

"Within a few moments, gunfire started

everywhere," Ihab said. "I looked at the boys and saw that Yazan had been shot." With the help of the residents, Yazan was admitted to the hospital.

"I saw his intestines coming out before my eyes," said his brother Yazid, sitting next to Yazan in the hospital bed. Another bedridden in the tent next to Nasser's hospital, Mohammed al-Homs, had also gone to get food that day.

He said, "We only went to get food for

the children. But as soon as we reached the relief center, they shot me twice. Once in the leg, and once in the face."

It is worth noting that the US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) began distributing food in Gaza on May 27. But in the past eight days, as of Tuesday, at least 102 hungry Palestinians have been killed by Israeli fire at these US-backed relief distribution centers. More than a hundred more have been injured.c
