New Delhi:
Israel’s military killed seven aid workers in its latest attack in Gaza amid man-made famine, which fumed the international community.
International community calls for an urgent investigation after an Israeli air attack killed seven aid workers – six foreign nationals and a Palestinian – in Gaza.
Police have clashed with protesters in Israel as hundreds marched towards Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s residence in Jerusalem.
The UN Security Council held an emergency meeting over a strike that hit Iran’s consulate in Syria’s Damascus, with Tehran demanding condemnation of the attack from the UN.
Reporters Without Borders (RSF) has called for a “repeal” of the newly adopted Israeli law that paves the way for a ban on foreign news networks.
A new report released by the World Bank and the UN said damage to Gaza’s infrastructure is estimated at $18.5bn.
Herzi Halevi, the chief of staff of Israel’s armed forces, said several air strikes on an aid convoy operated by World Central Kitchen, which killed seven aid workers, were a grave mistake.
He said that a preliminary review of the incident showed that the strikes were not carried out with the intention of killing aid workers but resulted from a misidentification of the vehicles in the aid convoy in complex conditions, at night.
