Singapore army files police report over motorcyclist filmed in PIE row claiming to be military policeman who could impound carWorld Central Kitchen founder Chef Jose Andres answers one dead child is too many when asked what he would say to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, while participating remotely in an online Reuters interview from Eastern Shore, Maryland in this video grab taken on April 3, 2024.
“This was over a 1.5, 1.8 kilometers, with a very defined humanitarian convoy that had signs in the top, in the roof, a very colorful logo that we are obviously very proud of,” he said. It’s “very clear who we are and what we do”.Andres said the IDF was aware of the convoy’s whereabouts. He called for investigations of the incident by the US government and by the home country of every aid worker that was killed.
Asked for comment on Andres’ remarks, an Israeli military spokesperson referred to prior comments by chief of staff Herzi Halevi in which he called the incident a grave mistake and said the attack “was not carried out with the intention of harming WCK aid workers.” The chef also wondered aloud how Netanyahu could wage a war to save Israeli hostages “when they may be dying under the rubble of the same weapons” Israel used against Palestinians.Andres said his organisation was still studying the safety situation in Gaza as it contemplates starting aid deliveries again.
Andres described how he learned of the attack, saying first his group lost contact with its team in Gaza, and did not realise what happened until seeing images of the bodies.
