Peggy and Hank Hill are back for Season 14 of 'King of the Hill.' (Hulu)

It's been over 15 years since we said goodbye to Hank Hill and his family, but now, the King of the Hill is coming home! The long-awaited 14th season of the animated series will have a huge time jump, wherein a now-retired Hank and Peggy return to Arden, Texas, from Saudi Arabia. Despite Dale, Boomhauer and Bill welcoming them home, the pair seems to be struggling with some of the changes in Arden since they left, including fancier beer, all-gender restrooms and rideshare apps. Bobby seems to be thriving in Dallas as a chef for a Japanese and German fusion restaurant. Mike Judge, Kathy Najimy, Stephen Root, Pamela Adlon, and Lauren Tom are all reprising their roles in the King of the Hill reboot. Original series co-creators Mike Judge and Greg Daniels both serve as executive producers on the show. All 10 episodes of the new King of the Hill season will drop on Hulu this Monday, August 4. Here's what else you about the King of the Hill reboot.

When does King of the Hill come back?

The release date for King of the Hill Season 14 is Monday, Aug. 4, 2025. And we won't just get one episode on that King of the Hill premiere date, we're getting all 10 episodes of the new season!

King of the Hill reboot channel:

While the original King of the Hill series aired on FOX, the newest season/reboot of the show won't air on FOX, but will stream exclusively on Hulu (or on Disney+ for all Hulu and Disney+ bundle subscribers).

How to watch the new King of the Hill season:What is the new King of the Hill about?

Nearly 16 years after King of the Hill went off the air, the show is returning for its 14th season. The season will start off with a time jump to the present day, where we'll see Hank and Peggy returning from working abroad in Saudi Arabia. The newly retired pair seem to be struggling to adjust to their old life back in Arden, Texas. And little Bobby is working as a chef in Dallas, all grown up now… well, sort of.

King of the Hill reboot trailer:King of the Hill new season cast:

Wondering who is coming back for the new season of King of the Hill? Well, excitingly, much of the original voice cast is returning for the reboot, including series co-creator Mike Judge as Hank Hill, Kathy Najimy as Peggy Hill, Stephen Root as Bill, Pamela Adlon as Bobby Hill and Lauren Tom as Minh and Connie.

The late Johnny Hardwick recorded several episodes as Dale before his passing, Toby Huss will take over as Dale moving forward. Jonathan Joss, who was killed earlier this year, also recorded some lines for John Redcorn. It hasn't been confirmed who will replace Joss in the role.

In Season 14, Kenneth Choi (The Wolf of Wall Street) will be taking over for Toby Huss as Laotian businessman Ted Wassanasong, with Ki Hong Lee (The Maze Runner) will step in as Ted's son, Chane (replacing Pamela Adlon). Tai Leclaire will take over the role of Joseph Gribble from Breckin Meyer.

As far as totally new cast members and characters go, Keith David (The Princess and the Frog) will be joining as Brian Robertson, the tenant of the Hill home while Hank and Peggy were in Saudi Arabia. Anthony 'Critic' Campos (Idiocracy) will play Chef Emilio, who works alongside Bobby in Dallas.

Is the King of the Hill reboot only one season?

Despite King of the Hill Season 14 not even being out yet, the series has been renewed for Season 15! So we won't just be getting one reboot season of the show. Phew!

Where to watch every season of King of the Hill:

You can stream all 13 seasons of King of the Hill on Hulu (or Hulu via Disney+).

"I don't have any regrets. It's been lovely and a great place to raise the kids," the actor tells PEOPLE

Ty Burrell is digging his new life in Utah — so much so that he says he has no regrets about leaving Los Angeles.

"It's just been spectacular," the actor, 57, tells PEOPLE in an exclusive interview of Salt Lake City, where he lives with his wife Holly and their two teenage daughters, Frances and Greta.

"We moved here right after [Modern Family] ended, and I don't have any regrets. It's been lovely and a great place to raise the kids," he adds.

Ty, who is currently starring in the scripted podcast series The Good Life, which is loosely based on his own childhood, admits he is "itching" to get back into performing again, but, for now, he is loving voiceover work, so he can continue his outdoorsy lifestyle.

Still, he admits that he wasn't exactly a lover of the outdoors when he first moved to the mountains, explaining, "My parents weren't really those kinds of people."

"So at first, when we moved here, it almost felt like cosplay, like we were pretending to be people who were outdoorsy, and now we really truly love it," Ty continues.

Ty spoke with PEOPLE about his longtime marriage earlier in the year. He and Holly have been married for 25 years, and he credited one relationship rule with making their union go smoothly.

"This is probably connected to the really old axiom of 'Don't go to bed angry,' but we force ourselves to talk about stuff," Ty said at the time. "Both of us make sure that if something's wrong, by the end of the night, we have at least had some discussion about it."

He added, "Neither one of us are silent treatment people, and I think that's a real benefit, because I think that can be really hard on a relationship, when you don't talk about things."

The Good Life podcast series — also featuring Jennifer Garner, Colton Dunn, Jillian Bell and Ego Nwodim — is now available on Audible.

Job market concerns take center stage as earnings season rolls on: What to watch this week Josh SchaferAugust 3, 2025 at 7:36 PM Stocks tumbled from record highs on Friday as data revealed the US labor market is not on as solid footing as previously thought.

- - Job market concerns take center stage as earnings season rolls on: What to watch this week

Josh SchaferAugust 3, 2025 at 7:36 PM

Stocks tumbled from record highs on Friday as data revealed the US labor market is not on as solid footing as previously thought.

On the week, the S&P 500 (^GSPC) fell nearly 2.4%, while the Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) slid 2.2% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) shed 1.2%.

Markets will be greeted with a quieter week of economic news with no major releases anticipated.

Meanwhile, another busy week of corporate releases is set to greet investors with 122 S&P 500 companies set to report, led by Palantir (PLTR), Eli Lilly (LLY), and Disney (DIS).

A September shift

Markets exited Wednesday's Federal Reserve press conference leaning toward no interest rate cuts in the near future. That narrative flipped on its head on Friday morning.

The latest monthly jobs report showed the US labor market added fewer jobs than expected in July while the unemployment rate moved higher, and revisions to prior months' numbers revealed significantly fewer jobs had been added than initially thought.

In its release, the BLS said downward revisions to the May and June jobs reports "were larger than normal," with those changes showing more than a quarter million fewer jobs were added to the economy over those months. May's job gains were revised down to 19,000 from 144,000, while June's additions were cut to just 14,000 from the 147,000 initially reported.

Market pricing and economists argue Friday's report was likely a game changer for the overall economic narrative and how the Fed will move forward. Following Friday's jobs report, the probability of a September interest rate cut from the Fed surged to 83%, up from just 38% the day prior, per the CME FedWatch Tool.

"Our base case since January has been that the Fed won't cut rates this year," Bank of America Securities US economist Shruti Mishra wrote in a note to clients. "However, we have been arguing that the most likely alternate scenario is that labor market deterioration will force the Fed into 'bad cuts', which could play out at a pace of at least 25bp per meeting. The massive downward revision to payrolls in the July jobs report increases the probability of this scenario."

The July jobs report showed the US economy may be slowing more than initially thought, sparking a Friday market sell-off.

"Ultimately, stocks do better in a stronger economy than one that requires the intervention from the Fed," Interactive Brokers chief strategist Steve Sosnick told Yahoo Finance.

The economic growth concerns clouded what had been a positive week for the market as Big Tech earnings revealed AI investment is not stopping anytime soon. In at note to clients on Friday, Capital Economics senior market economist James Reilly wrote that Friday's market-sell off is likely "overdone," as AI will remain the "key driver" of global equities.

"These major US 'hyperscalers' are collectively continuing to invest heavily," Reilly wrote while pointing out Big Tech has recently outperformed the broader market following earnings reports. "That's one reason why we are positive on the outlook for the tech-heavy segments of the stock market, and on the outlook for US stocks as a whole."

Earnings volatility

After about two-thirds of the S&P 500 have reported earnings, the index is pacing for earnings growth of 10.3%, up from the 5% expected on June 27, per FactSet data.

Largely, the market has floated higher amid the slew of earnings releases. But under the surface, there have been significant stock moves off individual reports. In just the past week, Meta (META) stock rose more than 12% after topping estimates for both revenue and earnings per share. Meanwhile, Novo Nordisk (NVO) stock tanked 20% after cutting its full-year sales outlook. Julian Emanuel, who leads the equity, derivatives, and quantitative strategy team at Evercore ISI, noted that stocks are moving more than average in the day following releases, regardless of whether or not they beat or miss Wall Street's expectations.

For example, the average S&P 500 stock that misses estimates for both sales and earnings per share is seeing a 4.9% decline in the next trading day, a steeper decline than the average of 3.2% seen over the past five years.

With the market trading near record highs, Emanuel noted investors are "agitated by anything short of perfect" this corporate earnings season.

American metal: 6 vintage cars & the nuclear families who depended on them Ricardo RamirezAugust 3, 2025 at 1:57 AM Shanina/IstockphotoThe nuclear family on the go In the annals of American history, few icons loom as large or shine as brightly as the automobile.

Shanina/IstockphotoThe nuclear family on the go

In the annals of American history, few icons loom as large or shine as brightly as the automobile. More than mere machines, these steel chariots weren't just about getting from point A to point B; they were extensions of the American dream itself. They ferried families to drive-in movies, hauled groceries from the supermarket, and embarked on countless cross-country adventures, all while embodying the spirit of an era.

This is the story of six classic American cars, each a testament to a bygone era of design, engineering, and cultural significance. But it's also the story of the nuclear families who relied on them. These are tales of chrome and tailfins, sure, but also of shared laughter, quiet commutes, teenage rebellion, and the everyday moments that cemented a car's place not just in a driveway, but in the heart of a home. Join us as we journey back to a time when four wheels and a powerful engine were the bedrock of domestic life, exploring the unique bond between these iconic vehicles and the families who called them their own.

A father-daughter duo from downtown Pismo Beach, California, takes a breather on a hot day to pose for a photo. The 1950s transformed America, and Pismo Beach was no exception. With the post-war economic boom, car culture underwent a significant shift, moving cars from a luxury to a necessity. Suburbs sprawled, commutes lengthened, and suddenly, that family sedan wasn't just for joyrides—it was essential for everything from grocery runs to cross-country vacations.

A man poses with a 1950s-era Nash Ambassador. From 1932 to 1957, the Nash Ambassador reigned as a luxury titan, first under Nash Motors and later as part of American Motors Corporation. This wasn't just any car; it was renowned for its lavish equipment, exquisite construction, and groundbreaking innovations. So high was its quality and so luxurious its features, it earned the nickname "Kenosha Duesenberg," a nod to its elite status.

iahulbak/Istockphoto3. Between two worlds

A little girl stands in front of a Wolseley car in 1952, representing the moment when America was transitioning from pre-war austerity to post-war prosperity. The Wolseley (British in origin) was among the imported vehicles that found their way to American driveways before domestic automakers fully embraced the luxury features that would later define the industry. This touching image captures a generation caught between the world of the older, more modest vehicles that had served families through the Depression and World War II, and the gleaming new models that would soon define the suburban dream.

A young boy poses proudly with his elephant teddy bear companion on the hood of a Toyota Publica family car, creating a treasured childhood memory. The Toyota Publica was designed to be an affordable, practical vehicle for everyday families, featuring a small but efficient engine and simple, reliable mechanics that made car ownership accessible to a broader range of households. This charming scene captures the innocence of the 1950s and 60s, when children's imaginations transformed everyday objects into magical worlds.

JFsPic/Istockphoto5. Optimism

A young boy stands confidently beside the classic Volkswagen Beetle car in 1965, dressed in his finest vintage coat and ready to take on the world. The Volkswagen Beetle, with its reputation for exceptional reliability and fuel economy, had become an unlikely American success story by the mid-1960s, proving that practical German engineering could win over families seeking affordable, dependable transportation. This nostalgic image captures the positivity of mid-1960s America, when post-war families invested heavily in both quality education and reliable automotive transportation as essential pathways to middle-class prosperity and the American Dream.

scgerding/Istockphoto6. Rocky Mountain memories

A family makes a stop to capture the majesty of Colorado's Black Canyon of the Gunnison in 1986, their trusty Chevrolet Celebrity Estate Wagon having carried them safely through winding mountain roads. This fantastic car, part of GM's mid-size A-body platform introduced in 1982, was designed as the perfect family hauler, boasting a spacious cargo area, a reliable front-wheel-drive system, and a fuel-efficient engine that made it an ideal choice for long-distance family adventures across America's diverse terrain. By the 1980s, the American road trip had evolved from luxury to tradition, with families using their cars to explore the country's vast landscape.

MAXSHOT/IstockphotoThe takeaway

The bond between American families and their automobiles runs deeper than metal and mechanics. These cars were silent witnesses to first dates and final goodbyes, patient companions through midnight feedings and early morning commutes, and faithful servants that never asked for more than gas and occasional maintenance in return.

Each photograph tells a story that extends far beyond the frame, showcasing the idea of a nation coming of age alongside its automotive industry, of families whose daily rhythms were shaped by the hum of engines and the click of seatbelts. These weren't just cars; they were family members with their personalities, quirks, and irreplaceable roles in the American household.

Ines FerréAugust 2, 2025 at 11:00 PM

Cruise line stocks have been on a tear in recent months, with no signs of a slowdown as industry efforts to woo vacationers to the sea show signs of paying off.

Carnival (CCL) shares have rebounded more than 70% from their April lows when tariff turmoil rocked the markets. Norwegian Cruise Line (NCLH) also rose roughly 55%, while Royal Caribbean (RCL) rallied more than 70% over the same period.

Trump's trades deals have, to some extent, helped the industry gain clarity. Airlines like United (UAL) and Delta (DAL) reinstated financial guidance, crediting a clear picture of signals out of Washington. Similarly, cruise operators noted a sharp improvement in bookings over the last several months.

The rebound in cruise line stocks, Friday's market sell-off aside, came after April's market turmoil and subsequent recovery on the heels of President Trump's broad-based tariff pause.

On Thursday, Norwegian Cruise Line shares jumped 9% after the company posted record second quarter revenue and shared bookings now ahead of historical levels.

"It's never a single thing that drives the change that we saw from a choppy April to a record May through July," Harry Sommer, president and CEO of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings, told analysts during the earnings call. "But I'd say the primary driver was the improvement in the macroeconomic environment." He added that July was on its way to a record month for the company.

Earlier this week, Royal Caribbean posted record adjusted earnings on strong demand, though the cruise operator's top line came in below Wall Street expectations. Management credited an acceleration in "close-in demand," or bookings with little lead-time, allowing operators to keep prices higher for longer.

Strong performances from Royal Caribbean and Norwegian follow Carnival's record second quarter revenue of $6.3 billion in June.

The industry's outperformance has been in the making for a while now. In recent years, cruise operators have invested in newer, more advanced ships; thematic voyages; and exclusive destination-led experiences to attract new customers. Those efforts appear to be working as cruises, which often work out cheaper than land-based vacations, have grown in popularity.

The number of cruise passengers rose from 29.7 million in 2019, before the 2020 pandemic, to an estimated 37.7 million projected for 2025. The trend reflects passengers beyond baby boomers taking cruises as interest from first-time travelers rises.

Royal Caribbean management noted this week that millennials and younger travelers now represent about half of its customer base.

"Cruise is a good value proposition. So if people are thinking about taking a vacation, cruise is one of the cheaper forms of travel," Andrew Didora, senior equity research analyst at Bank of America, told Yahoo Finance. "I think [cruise lines] may be gaining some share within the vacation market."

JPMorgan researchers estimate the cruise industry will expand its slice of the $1.9 trillion global vacation market from roughly 2% to 3.8% by 2028.

A man accused of killing four people at a Montana bar is still on the run. Here’s what we know

A man accused of killing four people at a Montana bar is still on the run. Here's what we know Karina Tsui, CNNAugust 3, 2025 at 1:36 PM Authorities said they are searching for Michael Paul Brown in connection with a deadly shooting in Anaconda, Montana.

Authorities said they are searching for Michael Paul Brown in connection with a deadly shooting in Anaconda, Montana. - Anaconda-Deer Lodge County Law Enforcement

Parts of a national forest near Anaconda, Montana, were closed late Saturday as authorities expanded their search for the gunman accused of killing four people at a bar on Friday morning.

The suspect, identified as Army veteran Michael Paul Brown, was seen on security footage fleeing The Owl Bar, where the fatal shooting occurred, investigators said. He was last seen in the Stump Town area, west of Anaconda, according to The .

Authorities have locked down Barker Lake and the surrounding area inside the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest as local, state and federal agencies continue their search by land and air, a Montana Department of Justice spokesperson said.

On Friday, local law enforcement warned that Brown is "armed and extremely dangerous."

"It's okay to go about your business in town but please use caution," Anaconda Deer-Lodge County Chief Bill Sather said in a Saturday update on Facebook, urging residents to call 911 if they see the gunman.

Here's what else we know:

The shooting

Details about what led up to the shooting in the usually peaceful backcountry remain unclear.

The Montana Division of Criminal Investigation said the shooting took place at the Owl Bar at 10:30 a.m. and the scene is now secure. As of early Sunday, the bar is listed as "temporarily closed" online.

Cassandra Dutra, a bartender at the establishment, told CNN she felt extremely overwhelmed and sad by the incident.

Brown lived next door to the bar and would come in frequently, she said, but noted "he wasn't a part of the camaraderie" among other customers.

Dutra was not working on Friday, but said she lived nearby and heard noises during the shooting.

At first, she didn't think anything of it because there was construction outside the bar. When she heard there was a shooting, she did not immediately realize people had been hurt.

"I didn't immediately panic because I just know the atmosphere in the Owl … it never occurred to me that anybody was hurt," she said.

Security camera footage released Saturday shows Brown leaving The Owl Bar as he fled the scene of Friday's shooting, according to the Montana Department of Justice. - Montana Department of Justice

David Gwerder, the owner of The Owl Bar, told the AP he was unaware of any conflicts between Brown and anyone who was in the bar Friday morning.

"He knew everybody that was in that bar. I guarantee you that," Gwerder told the AP. "He didn't have any running dispute with any of them. I just think he snapped."

Details about what led up to the shooting in the usually peaceful backcountry remain unclear.

CNN has reached out to Gwerder for comment.

The suspect

Brown was part of an armored vehicle crew in the US Army from January 2001 to May 2005, and was deployed to Iraq from February 2004 to March 2005, Lt. Col. Ruth Castro, a spokesperson with the US Army, told CNN in an email Saturday.

He later joined the Montana National Guard from April 2006 to March 2009 and left military service as a sergeant, Castro said.

Brown's niece, Clare Boyle, told CNN her uncle was a veteran who struggled with mental health in the Army, and he wasn't the same after his service.

The Granite County Sheriff's Office shared this photo of Michael Paul Brown on Friday. - Granite County Sheriff's Office

His condition worsened after the passing of his parents, Boyle told CNN. She described him as "very sick" but also recalled some happy moments, such as learning to ride a bike and fishing with him.

Boyle expressed remorse and heartbreak for the victims' families, noting that five families were "destroyed" on Friday.

The Army declined to release information about Brown's mental health history citing policy and privacy constraints.

The search

In addition to Barker Lake in the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest, where Brown is suspected of having escaped to, authorities are also searching the area around Stumptown Road, north of the lake.

Anaconda resident Dan Haffey, who previously served as a fire foreman for the Montana Division of Forestry, told CNN his team would cut trails into the mountain for hikers.

"There's a thousand places to hide on that mountain," he said. "I've been on forest fires and in that drainage up there, and they're 5,000 acres … That mountain is gigantic."

Resident Randy Clark, who lives near Highway 1 and Stumptown Road told CNN helicopter searches near his home continued until about 11 p.m. on Friday and resumed at 6 a.m. Saturday.

He said he heard authorities shouting on Friday, but he couldn't tell if they were yelling at the suspect or communicating with each other.

"I heard a bunch of sirens and stuff and saw the state troopers and local police flying down Highway 1, west toward Philipsburg," he said. "(They) stopped directly across from where I live. You could see the blue lights and stuff, everything."

A white Ford F-150 truck that Brown drove was found after the shooting on Friday, but he "was not located in or around the vehicle," Montana Division of Criminal Investigation Administrator Lee Johnson said at a news conference.

Anaconda Deer-Lodge County Police Chief Bill Sather said Saturday the FBI, the Denver office of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, and the Granite County Sheriff's Office were assisting with the investigation.

The victims

Johnson said Friday that investigators have identified the four victims of the shooting, though authorities will not release their names until all families are notified.

Dutra, the bartender at the Owl Bar, believes every person at the establishment during the shooting was killed, which included a bartender who was the only staff member working, and three customers.

CNN's Taylor Romine, Josh Campbell, Taylor Galgano, Danya Gainor contributed to this report.

DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — A far-right Israeli minister visited and prayed at Jerusalem's most sensitive holy site on Sunday, triggering regional condemnation and fears that the provocative move could further escalate tensions. The visit came as hospitals in Gaza said 27 more Palestinians seeking food aid were killed by Israeli fire.

With Israel facing global criticism over famine-like conditions in the besieged strip, the visit by Itamar Ben-Gvir to the hillside compound threatened to further set back efforts by international mediators to halt Israel's nearly two-year military offensive in the Gaza Strip.

The area, which Jews call the Temple Mount, is the holiest site in Judaism and was home to the ancient biblical temples. Muslims call the site the Noble Sanctuary. Today it is home to the Al-Aqsa Mosque, the third-holiest site in Islam.

Visits by Israeli officials are considered a provocation across the Muslim world and openly praying violates a longstanding status quo at the site. Jews have been allowed to tour the site but are barred from praying, with Israeli police and troops providing security. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office said after Ben-Gvir's visit that Israel would not change the norms governing the holy site.

Ben-Gvir made the visit following Hamas' release of videos showing two emaciated Israeli hostages. The videos caused in uproar in Israel and raised pressure on the government to reach a deal to bring home from Gaza the remaining 50 hostages who were captured on Oct. 7, 2023, in the Hamas-led attack that triggered the war.

During his visit to the compound, Ben-Gvir called for Israel to annex the Gaza Strip and encourage Palestinians to leave, reviving rhetoric that has complicated negotiations to end the war. He raged against a video that Hamas released Saturday of 24-year-old hostage Evyatar David showing him skeletal and hollow-eyed in a dimly lit Gaza tunnel. He called it an attempt to pressure Israel.

Ben-Gvir's previous visits to the site have prompted threats from Palestinian militant groups. Clashes between Israeli security forces and Palestinian demonstrators in and around the site fueled an 11-day war with Hamas in 2021.

His visit Sunday was swiftly condemned as an incitement by Palestinian leaders as well as Jordan, the Al-Aqsa Mosque's custodian, and Saudi Arabia.

Sufian Qudah, spokesman for neighboring Jordan's foreign ministry, condemned what he called "provocative incursions by the extremist minister" and implored Israel to prevent escalation.

Videos of hungry and suffering Israeli hostages

Israel has been jolted by new videos of hostages with their ribs protruding and bodies ravaged by hunger. Netanyahu's office said it spoke with the Red Cross to seek help in providing them food and medical care.

The videos — released by Hamas and Islamic Jihad, the second-largest militant group in Gaza — triggered outrage across the political spectrum. Tens of thousands rallied in Tel Aviv on Saturday urging Israel and the United States to urgently pursue their release after suspending ceasefire talks.

Right-wing politicians who oppose deals with Hamas said the footage reinforced their conviction that the militant group must be obliterated.

"From here we need to bring a message and ensure that from today, we conquer all of the Gaza Strip, declare sovereignty over all of the Gaza Strip, take out every Hamas member and encourage voluntary emigration," Ben-Gvir said on a video posted on social media after his visit to the holy site.

Deadly chaos grips food distribution points

Palestinians reported more deadly violence at aid sites Sunday, and the Palestinian Red Crescent Society said a staff member was killed when Israeli forces shelled its office with artillery.

Hospital officials said Israeli forces killed at least 27 Palestinians seeking food, and witnesses described facing gunfire as hungry crowds surged toward aid sites.

Desperation has gripped the Palestinian territory of more than 2 million, which experts warn faces "a worst-case scenario of famine ″ because of Israel's blockade. No aid entered Gaza between March 2 and May 19, and aid has been limited since then.

Yousef Abed, among the people en route to a distribution point, described coming under indiscriminate fire and seeing at least three people bleeding on the ground.

"I couldn't stop and help them because of the bullets," he said.

Two hospitals in southern and central Gaza reported receiving bodies from routes leading to the Israeli-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation aid sites, including 11 killed in the Teina area while trying to reach a distribution point in Khan Younis.

Three Palestinian eyewitnesses, including one traveling through Teina, told The that shootings occurred on the routes, which are in military zones secured by Israeli forces. They said they saw soldiers open fire on hungry crowds advancing toward troops.

Eyewitnesses seeking food have reported similar gunfire in recent weeks near aid distribution sites. The United Nations says 859 people were killed near GHF sites from May 27 to July 31 and hundreds of others have been killed along the routes of U.N.-led food convoys.

GHF says its armed contractors have only used pepper spray or fired warning shots to prevent deadly crowding. Israel's military has said it only fires warning shots. Both claim the death tolls have been exaggerated.

Israel's military did not immediately respond to questions about Sunday's reported fatalities but said it was reviewing the Red Crescent's claim. GHF's media office said there was no gunfire "near or at our sites."

More deaths from hunger

Meanwhile, Gaza's Health Ministry said six more Palestinian adults died of malnutrition-related causes over the past 24 hours, bringing the malnutrition-related death toll among adults to 82 over the five weeks that the ministry has counted such deaths. Malnutrition-related deaths are not included in the ministry's count of war casualties.

Ninety-three children have also died of malnutrition-related causes since the war began, the ministry said.

Israel has taken steps in the past week to increase the flow of food into Gaza, saying 1,200 aid trucks have entered while hundreds of pallets have been airdropped, but U.N. and relief groups say conditions have not improved. The U.N. has said 500 to 600 trucks a day are needed.

Anger has led to protests overseas, including one in Australia on Sunday by thousands of people.

The 2023 attack that sparked the war killed about 1,200 people and abducted another 251. Israel's retaliatory military offensive has killed more than 60,800 Palestinians, according to Gaza's Health Ministry.

The ministry, which doesn't distinguish between civilians and combatants in its count, is staffed by medical professionals. The United Nations and other independent experts view its figures as the most reliable count of casualties. Israel has disputed its figures but hasn't provided its own account of casualties.
