Israel fires two officers after killing international aid workers. Seven employees of the non-governmental organization (NGO) World Central Kitchen in the Gaza Strip were killed in an Israeli attack.
Israel's military is now firing two high-ranking officers. Three other officers are also reprimanded. The Israeli soldiers mistakenly assumed that their drone strike was targeting vehicles carrying armed Hamas fighters instead of a convoy from the aid organization World Central kitchen. The deaths of the aid workers sparked horror and sharp criticism of Israel around the world.
