Poland has summoned Israel's ambassador in response to the closure of a 2024 investigation into an attack that killed seven World Central Kitchen aid workers in Gaza. The attack, carried out by Israeli aircraft, targeted a clearly marked convoy of the charity in central Gaza in April 2024. Among the victims was Polish volunteer Damian Sobol from Przemysl.
Poland expressed its disappointment over the discontinuation of the proceedings and delivered a critical assessment of Israel's handling of the case. Poland's Deputy Foreign Minister Ignacy Niemczycki described Israel's decision as surprising and emphasized the need for proportionate use of force, stating that inappropriate use of force should have consequences.
Australia also summoned Israel's ambassador in Canberra on Thursday, as Australian aid worker Lalzawmi Frankcom was among those killed in the incident.
