Gaza warehouse broken into by ‘hordes of hungry people’, says WFP | BBC News


The UN’s World Food Programme (WFP) says that "hordes of hungry people" have broken into a food supply warehouse in central Gaza.

Two people are reported to have died and several others injured in the incident, the programme said, adding that it was still confirming details.

Footage showed thousands of people breaking into the Al-Ghafari warehouse in Deir Al-Balah and taking bags of flour and cartons of food as gunshots rang out. It was not immediately clear where the gunshots came from or who fired them.

Meanwhile, Israeli ministers say 22 new Jewish settlements have been approved in the occupied West Bank – the biggest expansion in decades.

The issue of settlements – which are widely seen as illegal under international law, though Israel disputes this – is one of the most contentious areas of dispute between Israel and the Palestinians.
