Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom issued a joint statement Friday calling for the prosecution of those responsible for the April 2024 IDF strike on a World Central Kitchen aid convoy in Gaza, according to The Zioneer.
The call follows the IDF's closure of its investigation into the incident, which concluded this week with disciplinary action against five officers but no criminal charges. As The Zioneer reported earlier Friday, the same three countries had already issued a joint statement criticizing the probe closure as 'shameful.'
The April 2024 strike killed seven aid workers, including Australian national Zomi Frankcom. The IDF's internal probe had been the subject of diplomatic friction, with Australia summoning the Israeli ambassador in August in response.
