IDF Strikes World Central Kitchen Convoy — 7 Aid Workers Killed

| Gaza War

Israeli airstrikes hit a convoy of three World Central Kitchen vehicles in Deir al-Balah, killing seven humanitarian aid workers from Australia, Poland, the UK, and a dual US-Canadian citizen. The convoy was coordinating its movement with the IDF prior to the strikes. The killing triggers a global outcry, prompts multiple countries to summon Israeli ambassadors, and leads to WCK temporarily suspending operations in Gaza. Israel fires two officers and reprimands others.
