IDF sack officers over attack that killed 7 World Central Kitchen aid workers

MORE families will be left grieving unless Israel's military carries out "systemic change", aid group World Central Kitchen warned.

It followed the sacking of two Israel Defense Forces officers after an investigation found grave errors led to the deaths of seven aid workers, including three Britons, in Gaza.

Military veterans John Chapman, 57, James Henderson, 33 and James Kirby, 47, were killed in the attack, which sparked global outrage.

One World Central Kitchen car was destroyed by a drone strike on Monday night after it left Deir alBalah warehouse, where a team had unloaded more than 100 tons of humanitarian aid.

Two more vehicles were targeted after drone operators saw survivors scrambling into them, the IDF probe concluded.

It claimed drone controllers could not see the World Central Kitchen logo on the top of the vehicles because it was dark. They targeted the convoy after allegedly seeing an armed man on the roof of one.

Yoav Har-Even, head of the IDF Fact Finding and Assessment Mechanism, said this fuelled the belief the cars had been seized by Hamas fighters.

WCK founder Jose Andres claimed the military knew of his aid workers' movements and targeted them "systematically, car by car".

The charity said the Israeli investigation and the sackings were an important step, but systemic change was needed to prevent "more apologies and more grieving families".
