And we are still supporting Israel.The Israeli military has killed three workers with the World Central Kitchen (WCK) and at least two other people in an air strike on a vehicle in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, in what was the third deadly attack on the aid group this year.
The US-based charity, which runs community kitchens in Gaza, said it had paused its operations in Gaza after the attack on Saturday.
[...]
The Israeli military claimed that it was targeting a “terrorist” who had participated in the October 7 attacks on Israel and was employed by the WCK.

“All three men worked for WCK and they were hit while driving in a WCK four-wheel drive vehicle in Khan Younis,” Basal said, adding that the vehicle had been “marked with its logo clearly visible”.

The Israeli military has repeatedly targeted aid workers since the start of the war on Gaza in October 2023.
A series of Israeli air attacks hit a convoy of the WCK in April, killing seven of its aid workers. Another staff member was killed in an Israeli attack in July.
The Israeli military claimed that those attacks were “mistakes” and that it dismissed two officers and reprimanded three others for their role.
But an investigation by Al Jazeera’s Sanad verification agency using open-source information, witness testimonies and images from the site found the attacks were intentional.
Israel has also killed a record number of United Nations personnel in its war on Gaza.
