Palestinians outside a food distribution site run by an Israeli and U.S. backed group, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, on June 24. Hundreds of Palestinians seeking food at the group's sites have been killed by Israeli military fire, according to health officials and international medical teams in Gaza.

An NPR journalist in Gaza describes his harrowing experience seeking food from a distribution site run by private American contractors. He found himself facing Israeli military fire, crowds fighting for rations, and masked thieves.
