Aid workers killed in Israeli air strike in Gaza, charity tells BBC
A team of charity workers has been killed in Israeli strikes in northern Gaza, the UK-registered Al Khair Foundation has told the BBC. The charity said eight workers - including volunteers and journalists documenting their activities - were killed when their vehicles were targeted on Saturday in what Hamas described as a "blatant violation" of the ceasefire agreement with Israel. The Israeli military has said it had struck "two terrorists who were identified operating a drone that posed a threat to Israeli troops", adding that it then targeted "additional terrorists" who arrived at the scene. The charity rejects the allegation that members of its team were terrorists.
