Pressure grows on Israel over Gaza tactics after foreign aid worker deaths

Friendly governments decry Israel’s drone attack and reaction as UN body prepares to consider draft resolution on arms embargo

Israel is facing mounting international pressure to justify its conduct in the war in Gaza as the bodies of six foreign aid workers killed in a drone attack were repatriated to their families.

Seven members of World Central Kitchen (WCK) were killed when a drone repeatedly hit their convoy of three cars, clearly identified as belonging to the charity, after it left an aid warehouse in the central town of Deir al Balah on Monday night.
