Support our work: Israel is facing global condemnation after killing several international aid workers in Gaza. The workers with charity group World Central Kitchen were killed by an Israeli airstrike after unloading more than 100 tons of food aid carried by ship from Cyprus into Gaza. The charity staff, including three British nationals, an Australian, a Polish national and an American-Canadian dual citizen, and their Palestinian driver were struck while traveling in a clearly marked convoy branded with the charity's logo. World Central Kitchen said the attack occurred after the workers left a warehouse in Deir al-Balah, even though the charity had coordinated in advance about the convoy with the Israeli military. “Every single humanitarian aid worker … is already recognized by the Israeli army,“ says journalist Akram al-Satarri, reporting live from Rafah. “It's the full responsibility of the Israeli government now to clarify and … demystify the circumstances that led to that catastrophic incident.“ Al-Satarri also reports on Israel's move to ban the outlet Al Jazeera and on his experience living in Gaza right now, where food and medical supplies are scarce under Israel's strict blockade. “The famine is not looming. The famine is already taking place.“ Democracy Now! is an independent global news hour that airs on over 1,500 TV and radio stations Monday through Friday.
