Deir Al Balah, November 30 (RHC)-- The World Central Kitchen (WCK) aid group -- based in the United States -- has been running a lot of community kitchens in Gaza – and most of the population completely relies on them.

Today, the Israeli military targeted a car in Khan Younis with one missile, killing three workers from WCK.  Some people went and tried to rescue them, so then another missile struck two volunteers rescue workers.

This is not the first time the Israeli forces targeted the World Central Kitchen. In April, Israeli forces killed four international WCK workers.

After today’s attack, the community kitchens did not work and serve people. So, it’s beyond attacking Palestinians, Palestinian workers, aid organisations, it’s attacking all sources of aid, and all sources of community kitchens, and those who have been working tirelessly to prevent starvation in Gaza.

The question remains, why does Israel continue to target the World Central Kitchen community and their employees in the Gaza Strip?
