GAZA - Dozens of Palestinians were killed and injured in an Israeli attack while they were waiting for aid in Gaza City, said Hamas-run Health Ministry Spokesman Ashraf al-Qedra in a press statement on Sunday.

Palestinian security and medical sources told Xinhua that Israeli forces opened fire on people at the Kuwait roundabout, south of Gaza City, while they were waiting for aid trucks loaded with flour.

Earlier on Sunday, Israeli warplanes bombed a small truck carrying humanitarian aid in Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip, killing at least eight, according to the state-run Palestine TV.

There was no immediate comment from Israel on the incidents.
