JERUSALEM (Reuters) – An Israeli inquiry into the killing of seven aid workers in an air strike in Gaza this week found serious errors and breaches of procedure by the military, with the result that two officers will be dismissed and senior commanders formally reprimanded.
The inquiry found Israeli forces mistakenly believed they were striking vehicles carrying armed Hamas militants when drone strikes hit the three vehicles of the World Central Kitchens aid group, but that standard operating procedures had been violated.
