The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) said a bus carrying its staff to a distribution site near Khan Yunis in the south was “brutally attacked by Hamas” around 10pm.
“We are still gathering facts, but what we know is devastating: there are at least five fatalities, multiple injuries, and fear that some of our team members may have been taken hostage,” GHF said in a statement.
The group added that all five of the people killed were Palestinian aid workers for GHF.
“These were aid workers. Humanitarians. Fathers, brothers, sons and friends, who were risking their lives every day to help others,” the group said in its statement condemning the attack.
