Several aid workers, including foreign nationals, were killed in an Israeli military strike.
The volunteers were a part of the nonprofit ‘World Central Kitchen.’
They were traveling through a “deconflicted zone” in two armored cars branded with the charity’s logo while attempting to deliver food to civilians in Gaza.
They were leaving a warehouse after unloading 100 tons of humanitarian food aid when they were hit by the IDF strike.
Among those killed were a dual U.S.-Canada national, three from the United Kingdom, one from Australia, one from Poland and a Palestinian.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu acknowledged that the aid workers had been “unintentionally targeted.”
‘World Central Kitchen’ said it is pausing its operations following the fatal strike and assessing the future of its operations in Gaza.
