It is regrettable that the morally deficient developed world is demanding an investigation into the death of each of its citizens, but the unarmed innocent 33,000 Palestinian citizens who are being killed sitting at home are completely silent on the large number of deaths.

Israeli airstrikes in Gaza have claimed the lives of seven aid workers, drawing condemnation from around the globe. The victims, including individuals from diverse nationalities, were associated with the charity World Central Kitchen, delivering essential food supplies to Palestinians trapped in besieged areas.

Among the casualties were citizens from Britain, Australia, Poland, the United States, Canada, and Palestine. These aid workers had extensive experience in humanitarian missions, having served in various disaster-stricken regions worldwide.

Jacob Flickinger, a 33-year-old dual citizen of the United States and Canada, was among those killed in the airstrikes. Canadian Foreign Minister Mélanie Joly has called for a thorough investigation into the incident, emphasizing the unacceptable nature of attacks on humanitarian personnel.
