UN calls for investigation into Gaza aid stations deaths r11x

The UN Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, has called for an independent investigation into the reported killing on Sunday of at least thirty-one Palestinians near a US-backed aid distribution centre in Gaza. Israel denied that their forces fired at people near the site. UN human rights chief, Volker Turk, tells us the incident shows Israel's disregard for Palestinian civilians. Also in the programme: Russia stands by its hard line demands at ceasefire talks in Istanbul, and the French parliament votes to posthumously promote Alfred Dreyfus, in an attempt to right one of histories most infamous anti-Semitic scandals (Picture: Palestinians who were killed in the Israeli army attacks near the American aid center in Rafah and the Muin area and Salahaddin Street in the east of Khan Yunis are being sent to their last journeys by their relatives at Nasser Medical Center in Khan Yunis city, Gaza on June 2, 2025.
