The UN human rights office said that at least 1,760 Palestinians had been killed while seeking aid in Gaza since late May, a jump of several hundred since its last published figure at the beginning of August.
The UN report says 994 people were killed in the vicinity of GHF (Gaza Humanitarian Foundation) sites and 766 more along the routes of supply convoys.Â
The agency’s office for the Palestinian territories said in a statement that most of these killings were committed by the Israeli military. That compares with a figure of 1,373 killed, the office reported on August 1.
