Earlier today, Palestinian Arab reports claimed that an Israeli military operation in the Tel al-Sultan district of Rafah led to the deaths of over 30 individuals and caused many others to be wounded near a location designated for distributing humanitarian aid. These assertions were swiftly picked up by international news outlets and sparked a surge of condemnation toward Israel.
In response, the Israel Defense Forces issued a statement clarifying their position. “The IDF is currently unaware of injuries caused by IDF fire within the Humanitarian Aid distribution site. The matter is still under review.”
Later, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation released surveillance footage taken from cameras at the aid center at the time the attack was said to have happened. The footage clearly showed that no strike occurred in that area, directly refuting the initial claims made by Palestinian Arab sources.
