Vehicle carrying World Central Kitchen colleagues hit by an Israeli airstrike in Gaza

November 30, 2024


We are heartbroken to share that a vehicle carrying World Central Kitchen colleagues was hit by an Israeli airstrike in Gaza.

At this time, we are working with incomplete information and are urgently seeking more details.

World Central Kitchen had no knowledge that any individual in the vehicle had alleged ties to the October 7th Hamas attack. 

World Central Kitchen is pausing operations in Gaza at this time. 

Our hearts are with our colleagues and their families in this unimaginable moment.
