The victims were part of the World Central Kitchen organisation and were trying to deliver aid to the starving population in Gaza. The Israeli prime minister described it as a ‘tragic case of our forces unintentionally hitting innocent people in the Gaza Strip’. The WCK said the aid workers were believed to be from the UK, Australia, Poland and Palestine, as well as a US-Canada dual citizen. In a statement, WCK said: ‘Despite coordinating movements with the [Israeli army], the convoy was hit as it was leaving the Deir al-Balah warehouse, where the team had unloaded more than 100 tons of humanitarian food aid brought to Gaza on the maritime route.’

  2. It's actually despicable. They're just indiscriminately killing and starving people. Netanyahu Needs to be removed from power as soon as possible. His own citizens think he's doing a terrible job and want to get rid of him. He knows he can't survive another election so he's doing everything to draw out this conflict as long as possible. Him saying that this is something that happened in war is really disgusting. I feel like slapping his smug face.

  12. I am very sorry about the death of these people. There was also a Polish AID in the convoy. The Israeli ambassador did not even bother to apologize for what happened. These are bad people. I hope there will be peace in Palestine

  14. He wants to keep this war going because he's in trouble for stealing money from his government along with his wife, so he's stalling time with the courts, bye continuing this war. Smh

  18. "This happens in war time". The war criminal is not wrong. War crimes do happen during war. Only not as openly and brazenly and methodically and extensively as this, or as in the countless of other war crimes committed by the IDF and the Netanyahu government that in total add up to a genocide. The war criminal wants us to understand and empathize that genocide happens in war, that the IDF's unprecedented, intentional assaults on hospitals and health-care workers, on humanitarian aid workers, journalists, children, women, the elderly, the crippled; the destruction of everything, the ethnic cleansing, and the genocide witnessed in this war, can't be helped. It's understandable: genocide is not possible without breaking some eggshells, and breaking enough eggshells can't but result in genocide. So, here you go, war criminal: a single teardrop from me to thee

  22. Glib Netanyahu
    He spoke about the killing
    and glibly he did say
    mistakes will always happen
    with a grin upon his face
    Yes he still has the button
    to launch atomic bombs
    so don't you ever cross him
    or your city might be gone
