"CBS News" broadcasts footage of gunfire at aid seekers in Gaza.

Reports have been broadcast about shootings at Palestinians while distributing aid at "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" sites, where an eyewitness reported that the gunfire was not only from the occupying army but also from contractors working with American subcontractors.

The "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" responded to these accusations by stating that its contractors do not shoot at civilians and that no one has been killed by gunfire at its sites, while the occupying army confirmed that it does not intentionally shoot at civilians and is investigating reports related to the damages.

Testimonies from former American contractors indicate that the shots fired by the occupying army and the contractors were random and targeted civilians, as one of them was tasked with cleaning up human and animal remains near one of the sites.

More than 1,800 Palestinians have been martyred while trying to obtain food, including at least a thousand near "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" sites, according to the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights office.

Palestinian and international institutions confirm that "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" sites have become death traps, with the UN rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories describing this foundation as a killing trap.

Amnesty International described the military aid system as lethal, based on accounts from residents in the Gaza Strip, and investigations revealed the use of live ammunition by American contractors against Palestinians.

171 international relief organizations demanded the immediate closure of the "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation," considering it a threat to civilians' lives and safety.

The Ministry of Interior and National Security in the Gaza Strip warned of a new system launched by the "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" to collect personal information and photos of Palestinians, indicating that the goal is to establish an intelligence security system.

The ministry urged Palestinians not to respond to any requests for personal data or photos requested by this foundation, which is overseen by the Israeli occupation.

Since the start of this mechanism on May 27, 1996 Palestinians have been martyred and 14,898 others injured, according to the government media office, as part of a "starvation engineering" policy.
