Charity boss accuses Israel of targeting aid staff 'systematically, car by car' - BBC News Charity boss Jose Andres says Israel targeted staff 'systematically, car by car' - BBC News

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez says explanations provided by Israel about the killing of seven people working for the aid charity World Central Kitchen in a Gaza airstrike were "insufficient" and "unacceptable".Earlier this week, Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had called the incident "a tragic event in which our forces unintentionally harmed non-combatants", adding that "this happens in war".
Sanchez, however, is demanding further details. More comments now from World Central Kitchen (WCK) founder Jose Andres, who earlier accused Israel of deliberately targeting the seven aid workers in Gaza, in an interview with Reuters.
He says he is "awaiting a much stronger and more detailed clarification, after which we'll see what action to take". He's now spoken to Israeli broadcaster Channel 12 news, saying: “The airstrikes on our convoy, I don’t think were an unfortunate mistake. It was really a direct attack on clearly marked vehicles whose movements were known by everybody at the IDF."
World Central Kitchen was founded by Spanish American chef Jose Andres. He stresses that the WCK convoy was in a deconflicted zone controlled by the Israeli forces when it was attacked.
Andres says no one is questioning Israel's right to defend itself, but "defending your people is not killing everybody else around".
Israel said the strike was "unintended" and that WCK workers were not deliberately targeted.
