An international charity suspended delivery of food to starving Palestinians on Tuesday, a day after an Israeli airstrike killed seven aid workers from World Central Kitchen who were trying to ease the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
Ships still laden with some 240 tons of aid from the charity that arrived Monday turned back from Gaza, according to Cyprus, which has played a key role in trying to establish a sea route to bring food to the territory.***
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu acknowledged that the country’s forces had carried out the “unintended strike ... on innocent people.” He said officials were looking into the strike and would work to ensure it did not happen again.
World Central Kitchen said it had coordinated with the Israeli military over the movement of the cars carrying the workers as they left northern Gaza late Monday. Footage of the aftermath showed a vehicle with the charity’s logo printed across its roof to make it identifiable from the air. The projectile punched a large hole through the roof. Two other vehicles in the convoy were incinerated and mangled, indicating multiple hits.

The strike also underscored what critics have called the Israeli military’s disregard for civilian casualties in its Gaza campaign, which it says is aimed at destroying Hamas after its Oct. 7 attacks on Israel.
Throughout the war, Israeli forces have shown readiness to inflict widespread destruction when they believe a suspected militant is present or when ground troops see a tactical need to strike.
Homes with families sheltering inside are leveled by strikes almost daily. The military has struck ambulances and aid vehicles, saying that armed fighters were in them.

“World Central Kitchen”
Sounds to me like another globalist front if ever one did.
I don’t know how, but Hamas surely played a role in this. Perhaps had someone advise IDF that top Hamas leaders were using the convoy. That it was a decoy.
They were helping the wrong side.
WAFAA SHURAFA AND SAMY MAGDY
Actually, I often just stop reading when I see ‘AP’.
Disrupting the supply line to Hamas sounds like a humanitarian crisis.
Why are they selling ration packs if they are starving. I guess not all are starving. Hamas keeps them for themselves. All we are doing is feeding Hamas.
Womp womp.
That was probably Netanyahu’s plan.
You are not far from wrong. The organization was founded by Spanish chef Jose Andres a noted anti-Trumpist.
The back story according to Wikipedia:
“Andrés planned to open a restaurant in the Trump International Hotel (also known as Old Post Office) in Washington, D.C., in 2016. After Donald Trump made disparaging comments about undocumented Mexican immigrants in June 2015, Andrés withdrew from the contract with the Trump Organization, which then sued him.[15] Andrés counter-sued, and the parties reached a settlement in April 2017.”
Now a naturalized U.S. citizen as of 2013. So yes he’s a globalist stooge.
Meant to say you are not far from being right.
stop sending in all the free food and resupplies and the Fakestinian terrorists will have to go away fast, within a week or so at any event
Israel makes a tremendous mistake enabling and providing “humanitarian” aid for its sworn enemies and those who mass-murder her citizens
did USA drop free food packages on Dresden, Nagasaki, or Hiroshima? Or for that matter, on any German or Japanese city while WW2 was being fought?
“Palestine” can surrender at any time.
Yeah that’s the ticket.
Ten bucks says they were delivering more than food.
The Trump International Hotel, Washington, D.C., closed on 11 May 2022. It was sold to CGI Merchant Group, LLC, and later reopened as the Waldorf Astoria Washington, D.C., on 1 June 2022. On 13 June 2022, Andrés announced that he would return to the location to open the restaurant that he had planned in the original 2015 deal. The Bazaar by José Andrés opened on 8 February 2023. …The founder and head of CGI Merchant Group, Raoul Thomas, is yet another globalist.
AP means All Propaganda
This is a war. Nobody agreed to a ceasefire for dogooders to deliver aid to one side on the battlefield. The dogooders were even placed on notice of these facts.
I saw a video from TBN Israel a couple weeks ago that stated there are MORE trucks of food going into Gaza now than there were prior to October 2023.
In 2023 there were on average 90 trucks going in daily. Now, there are 110 trucks going in daily.
There is no humanitarian crisis unless it is caused by Hamas. IT is all MSM PROPAGANDA.
Do not believe it.
What were they doing in a WAR ZONE?
They KILLED THEMSELVES! Just by going there.
