Charity boss José Andrés says Israel targeted staff 'systematically, car by car' - BBC News | |
(32 minutes later) | |
We've reported that World Central Kitchen (WCK) founder José Andrés says he thinks Israel deliberately targeted his aid workers. | |
Now, a spokesperson for Cogat - the Israeli defence ministry body in charge of co-ordinating aid deliveries to Gaza and liaising between the aid agencies and the Israeli military - insists there wasn’t a problem with the information they passed on to the IDF about the convoy’s movements. | |
Speaking to BBC's Newshour programme, Cogat spokesman Shimon Freedman says the strike on the aid workers was a "grave mistake" and an “absolute tragedy”. | |
“It was a | |
mistake that followed a misidentification but we’ve set up an | |
independent professional body to look into the incident and investigate." | |
He adds that he does not think there was a systemic problem because the IDF co-ordinates with aid agencies on the ground every day as a matter of course. | |
"There are dozens of co-ordinations a day and hundreds of thousands of | |
co-ordinations that have happened since the beginning of the war." | |
