Charity organisation World Central Kitchen (WCK) said seven of its international aid workers were killed by the strike while helping to deliver food and other supplies to northern Gaza.
The charity said the team were travelling in a “deconflicted zone” in two armoured cars branded with the WCK logo despite coordinating movements with the Israeli Defense Forces.
WCK said the seven killed were from Australia, Poland, the United Kingdom, a dual United States-Canadian citizen and Palestine.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Charity organisation World Central Kitchen (WCK) said seven of its international aid workers were killed by the strike while helping to deliver food and other supplies to northern Gaza.
In a statement confirming Ms Frankcom’s death, Foreign Minister Penny Wong said Australia condemned the strike, and had made representations to the Netanyahu government seeking a thorough review.
“I didn’t have the honour of knowing her, but the sort of values that are shown by someone going into a very dangerous place in order to assist mankind, their fellow humans, it says everything about the character of this young woman,” the prime minister said.
In a video posted online, Palestinians showed the British, Australian and Polish passports of three of the killed workers at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in the central Gaza town of Deir al-Balah.
Mahmoud Thabet, a Palestinian Red Crescent paramedic who was on the team that brought the bodies to the hospital, told The Associated Press the workers were in a three-car convoy that was crossing out of northern Gaza when the missile hit.
Chef José Andrés, who formed World Central Kitchen in 2010 in response to the Haiti earthquake, took to social media to respond to the death of the aid workers.
