More than 110 Palestinians are reported to have been killed while trying to get desperately needed aid in north Gaza.

Crowds of waiting civilians descended on a convoy of lorries after it passed through an Israeli military checkpoint on the coastal road, west of Gaza City.

Israel's military said troops fired at some people they thought were a threat, and a Palestinian witness told the BBC that most of those who died were run over.
