World Central Kitchen founder Chef Jose Andres says the Israeli drone strike on his workers was intentional. Seven workers were killed on Monday in Gaza after they delivered a hundred pounds of food to a warehouse. Andres says his team communicated with the Israeli government and notified them of every step they made.
They rode in a convoy with clearly marked vehicles. Footage of the damage shows the brightly-colored logos and high-visibility vests still intact, although the cars were destroyed. The official word from the Israeli government is that the strike was a mistake. Andres says the strike can’t be a mistake because there were multiple attacks over quite a long distance until everyone in the convoy was dead.
