Every dollar goes to help the people of Palestine

At least 29 people killed in Israeli fire at crowds of Palestinians seeking aid in central Gaza, medics say.
At least 72 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli fire across Gaza since dawn, including 29 people who were waiting for aid trucks, Palestinian health officials say, the latest carnage hitting people desperate to secure food for their hungry families.

The latest incidence of the daily killing of Palestinian aid seekers in recent weeks took place early on Wednesday on Salah al-Din Street near the Netzarim Corridor in central Gaza, medical sources told Al Jazeera. More than 100 others were injured in the attack, they said.
In the meantime, with much of the world’s attention on the Israel-Iran conflict, and what the United States may or may not do, a top leader of the Houthis in Yemen, one of Iran’s key allies, said they will keep up their support for Palestinians in the Gaza Strip until Israeli “aggression stops, and the siege is lifted”.

“Our operations in support of Gaza will not cease, no matter the sacrifices”, said Houthi-backed president Mahdi al-Mashat in a statement Wednesday.
