United Nations staff members inspect the carcass of a car used by US-based aid group World Central Kitchen, that was hit by an Israeli strike the previous day in Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip - AFPpix: Australia “omitted crucial details” when presenting a report into the deaths of seven aid workers in Gaza, Israel’s embassy in Canberra said Monday in a frank diplomatic rebuke.
Israel’s embassy hit back on Monday morning, saying the Australian government “regrettably included some misrepresentations and omitted crucial details”, such as its military’s willingness to cooperate. Former Australian air force chief Mark Binskin was tasked with monitoring Israel’s efforts to unravel what went wrong.
His report said some within the Israeli military believed the charity had “inadvertently” employed security guards from an “entity that had links to Hamas”.Aside from the litany of operational failures, Binskin’s report said Israel’s actions in the months following had been “timely” and “appropriate”.Two officers were quickly stood down, three others were reprimanded and Israel was swift to issue a public apology.
