A UN official says 47 Palestinians were wounded, mostly by gunfire, when a crowd overran the Gaza aid hub.

Ajith Sunghay, head of the UN Human Rights Office for the Palestinian territories, said it appeared that Israeli army fire had caused most of the injuries.

On Tuesday, crowds of Palestinians overwhelmed a new aid distribution hub set up by an Israeli and US-backed foundation.
