The GHF said 19 were trampled to death and one was stabbed "amid a chaotic and dangerous surge" at its site in the Khan Younis area. It added that it believed people "armed and affiliated with Hamas" fomented unrest.
But Gaza's Hamas-run Government Media Office denied the claim and accused the GHF of trying to "cover up" a crime.
