NEWS STORY : UK renews call for justice over Gaza aid convoy strike two years on

STORY

The UK has renewed its call for accountability over the Israeli strike that killed seven World Central Kitchen aid workers in Gaza, two years after the attack. In a statement published on 1 April, Middle East minister Hamish Falconer said Britain was still pressing Israel “at the highest level” for answers over the deaths, which included three British citizens.

Falconer said the families of John Chapman, James Henderson and James Kirby had spent two years seeking answers about the strike on the aid convoy, which was delivering food to civilians in Gaza. He said the Government would continue to push for “transparency and accountability” and repeated its call for justice over what he described as an “appalling attack”.
