Israeli spokesman questioned over the killing of seven aid workers in Gaza | LBC debate

"The dilemma we have is so many of the aid agencies have been fronts for Hamas."
"What other aid organisation could now trust that the information that it gives to the IDF to protect them will actually be listened to?"
Seven aid workers, including three British nationals, have been killed by an Israeli airstrike in central Gaza.
The UK has called on Israel to "immediately investigate" the circumstances surrounding the deaths.
Seven people were killed while working with the World Central Kitchen charity on Gaza’s coastal road in Deir Balah, central Gaza, on Monday night.
Benjamin Netanyahu has admitted they were killed in an "unintentional" Israeli strike.
In a video recorded message issued today, he said: "Unfortunately, in the last 24 hours there was a tragic case of our forces unintentionally hitting innocent people in the Gaza Strip.
Israeli government spokesman David Mencer tells Tom Swarbrick that "we're taking it extremely seriously."

If they wanted hostages back they would have negotiated a ceasefire and released Palestinian "prisoners", which in reality are mostly people held without charge and hostages too.

[@laurakushner5383]

Evil nonsense

[@aesclap21]

I haven’t heard one word of apology or condemnation from the Israeli spokesperson… and in the end, even if he had said that he was sorry, those words would ring hollow anyway. I’m just so tired of them insulting our intelligence with their blatant lies, non-apologies and deflections…

[@folken1761]

Q: Why did you target the Charity convoy? A: Hama is stealing the aid. That's not deflection, that's dissonance.

[@alexritchie4586]

Melanie Philips also believes in Schrödinger's Hamas; They're both taking all the food AND fully stocking all the markets.

[@tulip51-cn1zx]

Correct.

[@user-qf1zg4zz8j]

Tom did you ask ask him for evidence when he slurred UNRWA. No you didn't. Why give them impunity. Three separate vehicles each separated by several hundred meters and each targeted in spite of huge logos identifying the vehicles on the roof. My condolences to the families of the "World Central Kitchen" victims. Atrocities like this have happened on a daily basis to UNRWA aid workers whose organisation has been maligned by Israel without evidence simply because they look after Palestinians.

[@catherinethomas1276]

There's loads of factual hard exhibit evidence regarding unwra and hamas being in bed together. Find it. It's not hard.

[@wiredvibe1678]

In warzones people get killed. Who knew? I thought it was like a tea party.

[@adamesd3699]

Every single thing he said was a lie. His attack on UNRWA was one of those lies. Some of the heads of UNRWA are decorated US military veterans. The idea that they are Hamas operatives is ridiculous.

3 attacks miles apart.. why aren't those troops on charges

[@redarkhon482]

It's been months now, we should be getting answers on: - The bombed hospital. ( shifa ) - The sniping of the two women in a churche. - The attack on the ambulance. - The rockets that targeted and killed journalists. - The shooting of the israeli hostages by the IDF. - The bombing of the refugee camp. add to this, The killing of NGO operators ( while the UNSC voted a ceasefire ). There are other tragedies, that had occured that Israel should explain, but i'll refrain from citing what has not been reported on official western media.

[@serraangel7465]

And then they destroyed the whole hospital full of sick people

[@susanwestern6434]

The killing of 6 year old Hind and her family. Plus the ambulance that came to save her.

I remember them saying they don't target hospitals... That was 35 hospitals ago. There is literally no healthcare system left.

With the quality of cameras that drones are equipped with the logos of the charites would have been visible to the drone operators, the IDF knew the route they were taking, the time of their departure. As for his 'clearly something terrible had happened'.

No use asking an Israeli government spokesman any questions as they don't ever answer the question directly but rather go around in circles because of their guilt

Tom Sorry! you need to learn how to be an impartial journalist. You’re allowing a war criminal to peddle lots of israeli propaganda and insult families of those victims. Very cruel and Insensitive! at least give a grieving time to their families. Parents, children or partners whose life’s are shattered deserve space and time to grieve. Little” Sunak cares less about human life’s or families. And I suspected that missile was a UK made fully or partially.

It's maddening when someone says "something has happened" instead of "we are responsible" and inserts all his/her talking points about their enemy (genocidal/massacre/stealing) without dealing with what they are being asked. . . The words that should have come out of his mouth were "Sorry. We are responsible and we got it wrong".
