Armed group posing as aid workers targeted in Israeli strike, Israel says, as international calls mount for more Gaza aid

The Israeli military says it struck an armed group posing as aid workers and using a vehicle marked with the logo of the World Central Kitchen (WCK), a US-based non-profit.

The strike, which took place last week, killed “five armed terrorists,” according to a Tuesday statement from the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).

A video released by the IDF shows at least eight men wearing yellow vests and standing around a vehicle with a WCK logo on top. Several of the men in the video appear to be armed, “cynically exploiting the status and trust afforded to aid organizations,” the IDF said.
