8:02 pm
desktop is that the humanitarian aid vehicles and said the gaza strip and were overwhelmed by uh, people attempting to essentially loops to uh, to take that uh, aid from those a trucks and at some point. and we can, you can surely see this and some of the videos that the, all you have for distributed at some points. the truck so overwhelmed and the people driving the trucks which are garzon. uh said garzon and civilian drive is uh, plowed into um, the crowds of people. as we have mentioned, there have been conflicting reports here. i asked you to visa or respond at tanya kramer, what we can say for sure at this point. i mean, as you said, the conflicting reports and you know, the words devastating seems being described by eye witness to why service there. so

8:04 pm
and they're saying that we're actually 2 incidents that there was a stone, pete in the, in the 1st place that a lot of people were actually trying to get to the age. and we're trying and this caused the panic and that also truck drivers. then we're turning around and people were run over. and then there was a 2nd incident where they put out in the statement, but also talking to reporters and a briefing this afternoon saying that some so despite the structure and, and that they were responding with live fire. but they also said this incident is still under review. so basically, what do we have to remind ourselves is also that, you know, in the post as we heard from the 8 organizations and from the united nations out this spread the situation. that's nice, and you can see that how many people were trying to congregate around these trucks trying to get to the goods on on these trucks. did organizations warning of this

8:06 pm
