UK, Canada and Australia condemn Israel over lack of criminal probe into Gaza aid worker deaths
Seven workers from the humanitarian organization World Central Kitchen were killed when an Israeli airstrike hit their convoy in 2024, officials said. The convoy, which was transporting food supplies to civilians in the conflict zone, was struck while traveling along a designated humanitarian route, resulting in the deaths of all seven aid workers on board.
The incident has prompted calls from international bodies for a thorough investigation into the circumstances of the strike and for renewed safeguards for humanitarian missions operating in the area. Israeli authorities have indicated they are reviewing the event, while World Central Kitchen has urged the international community to reinforce protections for aid personnel to prevent further loss of life.
