Three British aid workers were killed by an Israeli airstrike in Gaza, charity World Central Kitchen (WCK) has said. <\/p>\n

Nationals from Poland and Australia were also killed, as well as a dual citizen of the US and Canada – and a Palestinian who was driving the car they were all travelling in.<\/p>\n

The volunteers were employed by WCK, a non-governmental organisation which provides food for displaced Palestinians.<\/p>\n

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has acknowledged that Israeli forces were responsible for the airstrike, saying there was a “tragic incident of an unintended strike of our forces on innocent people in the Gaza Strip”.<\/p>\n

He added: “It happens in war, we check it to the end, we are in contact with the governments, and we will do everything so that this thing does not happen again.”<\/p>\n

Writing on the X social media platform, he added: “British Nationals are reported to have been killed, we are urgently working to verify this information and will provide full support to their families.<\/p>\n

“These were people who were working to deliver life-saving aid to those who desperately need it.<\/p>\n

“It is essential that humanitarian workers are protected and able to carry out their work.<\/p>\n

“We have called on Israel to immediately investigate and provide a full, transparent explanation of what happened.”<\/p>\n
