Israeli strike on Gaza aid convoy kills four Palestinians, says US group
Responding to this story from yesterday, the NGO is still trying to pretend to hold the moral high ground.
[GEOTV] An Israeli air strike on an aid convoy carrying food and fuel to a Gaza hospital killed four Palestinians on Thursday, US-based aid group said as Israel claimed they were "armed assailants," which the group American Near East Refugee Aid (Anera) denied.

The four Palestinians were in the lead vehicle of an Anera aid convoy bound for the Emirati Red Crescent Hospital in Rafah in southern Gaza, the aid group said in a statement on Friday.

Soon after the convoy left the Israel-controlled Kerem Shalom crossing into Gaza, four Palestinians from the community "took control of the leading vehicle, citing concern that the route was unsafe and at risk of being looted," Anera said.

"Israeli authorities allege that the lead car was carrying numerous weapons. Every initial report from those at the scene indicate that no weapons were present," the organisation said.
