An Israeli minister has suggested that Palestinians should not have "national rights", including the right over land and voting.

In an interview with the newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth, Israeli Minister of Settlements and National Missions Orit Strock outlined her plans to annex as much land as possible in the occupied West Bank under the incoming Trump administration, saying that Palestinians would have "full individual rights, not national rights".

"My office is working at full throttle to ensure that if sovereignty [annexation] is applied, it will cover the maximum area possible," she said.

War on Gaza: Blood mixed with flour as Israeli kills Palestinians receiving food

Israeli forces killed several Palestinians seeking food supplies in the Gaza Strip's so-called "humanitarian zone" earlier this week, rescuers and relatives of victims told Middle East Eye.

The deadly air strike had struck a tuk-tuk vehicle near an aid distribution point in the Miraj area north of Rafah.

Disturbing images from the scene show victims’ blood mixed with flour on the floor.

Ziad Farhat, the director of rescue teams in Rafah, told MEE the area where the people were hit is within Israel’s so-called "humanitarian zone", which is supposed to be safe for displaced people.
