Summary
Seven World Central Kitchen staff killed in the April 1, 2024 Gaza strikes were failed again by an Israeli military prosecutor's account that the charity called inconsistent with the full truth and deeply offensive.
WCK said the IDF knew its team was unarmed, had advance knowledge of their movements and identities, and had clear visual contact with the group's marked humanitarian vehicles during multiple strikes.
The charity accused the military investigation of conflating timelines, muddying events and shifting blame for what it called illegal conduct, while rejecting the decision on criminal investigations.
WCK renewed its call for an independent commission, arguing the IDF cannot credibly investigate its own actions, and said it is still seeking truth and justice for the victims' families.
