The Civil Defense's spokesperson in Gaza said that the IOF murders Palestinians by giving them a fake sense of safety and before killing them minutes later.

Gaza's Civil Defense spokesperson, Major Mahmoud Basal, announced that the bodies of more than 150 Palestinians killed in the Khan Younis massacre were recovered from under the rubble, with 500 others still missing.

Following the withdrawal of the Israeli occupation forces from areas in the Strip, around 2,000 Palestinians from Gaza were recorded as missing, and it is still unclear whether they have been detained by the IOF or buried. 

The spokesperson stressed that the IOF are systematically using forced disappearance against the people of Gaza, bulldozing dozens of bodies and burying them before withdrawing from areas they invade. 

He added that the IOF gives Palestinians a fake sense of safety and then brutally kills them minutes later, emphasizing that a huge number of the victims of mass graves and hospital raids are women and children. 

Basal labeled Israeli actions in Gaza as "ethnic cleansing," stressing that what is happening in Gaza has never happened anywhere else before in human history, and the weapons being used by the IOF had never been used before. 

The spokesperson added that many of the victims were stripped naked before being killed and have been registered as "unknown", many of them being from North Gaza. 

Only 392 food trucks entered Gaza in 20 days

The head of the Government Media Office in Gaza revealed on April 20 that the occupation has been promoting a false narrative for some time about improving the mechanism for delivering aid and increasing the number of trucks entering the Strip.

Salama Marouf pointed out that the World Food Programme WFP has denied the Israeli claims by announcing the entry of only 392 food trucks into Gaza in April so far.

The UN organization clarified that this number is "almost the same rate as in March, but half the number compared to January."

Marouf emphasized that WFP's announcement aligns completely with the documented statistics of the government office, which confirm that the Israeli narrative adopted by the United States of aid deliveries reaching around 300 per day is "pure lies and falsification of reality."

He said that the total number of aid trucks entering daily on average is between 130-150 trucks, which actually represents approximately 25% of what it was before the aggression started last October.
