The statement further stated that the aid workers were traveling in a convoy of 3 vehicles carrying WCK personnel.

The statement said that despite keeping the Israeli army aware of its movements, the convoy was targeted when it was returning from unloading relief supplies at a warehouse in Deir al-Balah.

On the other hand, the Israeli army says that the incident is being investigated at a high level.

The Palestinian resistance organization Hamas has said in its statement that this attack is an attempt by Israel to intimidate aid workers and stop them from their work.

What took place?

After unloading 100 tonnes of food aid at its central Gaza warehouse, WCK said it was “devastated to confirm” that seven members of the organization had died while traveling in a convoy near Deir el-Balah.

It claimed that the gang had coordinated its operations with the Israeli military and was moving through a “deconflicted zone” in two armored trucks bearing the WCK emblem.

WCK CEO Erin Gore stated in a statement on Tuesday that “this is not only an attack against WCK, this is an attack on humanitarian organizations showing up in the most dire of situations where food is being used as a weapon of war.” “This is not excused.”
