Palestinians are reported to have been killed and wounded in another shooting as they gathered near an aid distribution site in central Gaza. According to Palestinian journalists, those killed were fired on by Israeli troops. Information on Saturday's incident is scarce as the internet has been down in Gaza for more than two days.

The Israeli military said its forces fired warning shots toward suspects who were advancing while posing a threat to the troops.

At least 16 Palestinians were killed in Israeli strikes on the Gaza Strip overnight and into Saturday, according to local health officials. The 20-month war with Hamas has raged on even as Israel has opened a new front with heavy strikes on Iran that sparked retaliatory drone and missile attacks.
