An Israeli strike in Gaza resulted in the tragic deaths of seven aid workers from the non-profit organization World Central Kitchen. The workers were on a mission to deliver food to starving civilians in the besieged enclave when they were killed. Among the victims was a dual US-Canadian citizen.
The incident has sparked fury and indignation within the White House, leading President Joe Biden to release a public statement expressing his outrage. This marks a rare use of strong language by the President in response to the ongoing conflict in the region.
