Israel's IDF chief admits to a "grave mistake" after a strike kills seven aid workers in Gaza, sparking international condemnation. The attack hits a World Central Kitchen convoy, leaving Australian, British, Palestinian, Polish, and US-Canadian staff dead. The strike, blamed on misidentification in complex conditions, prompts calls for a ceasefire and accountability. Despite apologies, tensions rise as Israel faces backlash from allies like the US and protests demanding action. The tragic incident highlights the dangers faced by humanitarian workers in conflict zones, leading to suspensions of aid operations and demands for justice from affected countries. The devastating impact of the war on Gaza's infrastructure and population is further exacerbated by the strike, adding to the urgent need for humanitarian assistance and peace efforts.
