“Early this morning, the 60-bed Red Cross Field Hospital in Rafah received a mass casualty influx of 184 patients. This includes 19 cases who were declared dead upon arrival and eight more who died due to their wounds shortly after,“ the ICRC said.
Gaza’s civil defence agency earlier said 27 people were killed after Israeli troops fired on a crowd near a US-backed aid distribution centre.
“After the suspects failed to retreat, additional shots were directed near a few individual suspects,“ a military statement added.
“The incident is being investigated”, he added.
“The unprecedented scale and frequency of recent mass casualty incidents treated at the field hospital is deeply worrying and illustrates the harrowing reality that civilians in Gaza are being forced to endure,“ it added.
The ICRC had said it received 179 patients that day, including at least 21 who were pronounced dead.
