Biden strongly criticizes Israel after targeting aid activists

On Wednesday, US President Joe Biden strongly criticized Israel for targeting a convoy of the World Central Kitchen team, which provides humanitarian relief activities to the residents of the Gaza Strip, which led to the death of 7 people, including 6 foreign activists of the organization with different nationalities, including an American.


Biden said in a press statement, as reported on the Hebrew website Ynet, that unfortunately, Israel is not doing enough to prevent harm to aid workers.


Biden added: This is not an isolated incident, but rather these events have been repeated during this bloodiest conflict for humanitarian relief workers.


He continued: The incident of killing aid workers should not happen.. Israel is repeating its mistake and not doing enough to protect aid workers who are trying to deliver aid to those who desperately need it.. This incident is not the first.. and this is the main reason behind the difficulty of distributing humanitarian aid in Gaza.
