The flour massacre...

Al-Rashid humanitarian aid incident

On 29 February 2024, in what has been characterized as a massacre by some sources, 117 Palestinian civilians were killed and at least 760 were injured; the circumstances are disputed. This incident, which has been referred to as the Flour Massacre in media, took place when Israeli forces opened fire on civilians who were attempting to get food from aid trucks on Al-Rashid street at the Al-Nabulsi roundabout to the west of Gaza City. The United Nations reported "a large number of gunshot wounds" among injured victims treated at al-Shifa hospital.

During the February 28 incident, Taiwanese leaders established Resolution Committees in various cities (with a central committee in Taipei) and demanded greater political autonomy. Negotiations with the ROC ended when troops arrived in early March. The subsequent feelings of betrayal felt towards the government and China are widely believed to have catalysed today's Taiwan independence
