Episode notes
Concentrated Aid Created Deadly Bottlenecks
- The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) ran only a few fenced distribution sites while Israel limited other aid access, concentrating crowds.
- That setup created dangerous bottlenecks where people queued for hours and risked stampedes and shootings.
Eyewitness Account Of Abdullah's Death
- Moaz and another witness described Abdullah being shot while seeking flour and dying within minutes.
- Eyewitness video was geolocated to about 500 metres from a GHF site and shows hundreds under fire.
Responsibility Shifted To Subcontracted Guards
- Independent monitors reported most killings near distribution points were by Israeli security forces, though Israel denies it.
- The BBC found that armed guards at GHF sites were subcontractors, not the IDF.
