The United Kingdom, Australia, Canada and Poland have expressed disappointment with Israel's decision not to investigate the death of humanitarian aid workers during a Gaza attack in April 2024. James Henderson, James Kirby and John Chapman were among the seven people killed when Israeli drone strikes targeted their World Central Kitchen convoy.
While Israel initially claimed it was a mistake, its military later stated that the strike was justified and that they would not press criminal charges. Foreign ministers from the UK, Australia and Canada described the announcement as "shameful" and vowed to continue seeking justice for the victims and their families. The attack is one of numerous incidents in Gaza where aid workers have been killed without accountability, with 186 humanitarian workers losing their lives in 2025.
Both Australia and Poland summoned Israel's ambassadors to voice their discontent with the decision.
