   Israel is going to say "whoopsie, sorry" about the WCK atrocity, but it will accomplish what they set out to do, which is discourage international aid orgs from working in Gaza. it's an implicit future death threat directed at anyone who would dare extend help to the starving people of Gaza. war crime. collective punishment. ethnic cleansing. https://wck.org/news/gaza-team-update

     @peter It should be noted that this attack doesn't at all appear random, either. WCK had coordinated this relief effort with the IDF for weeks. The boats they brought in today carried more tonnage than the entire US airdrop effort by a factor of 2-3x.

     They're systematically attacking any effort to feed that Palestinians which is more than performative/token in nature.

     And they've suceeded, WCK is halting its operations.

     @peter World Central Kitchen to date served over 42 million meals. The US airdrop mission, per US Centcom, is at 546k and change, but they also appear to count drops that go right into the sea. ~60 of the bundles they dropped today went into ocean (which at about a ton per bundle is probably substantially everything).
