  "account": "Poland's foreign ministry expressed strong disappointment after Israel announced it would not pursue criminal proceedings over the 2024 attack on a volunteer convoy in Gaza that killed a Polish citizen. The attack, which also claimed the lives of six other individuals working for the celebrity chef Jose Andres' World Central Kitchen organization, sparked international outrage.\n\nAccording to the ministry, it received the news of the decision on August 19, 2026. In response, Poland summoned Israel's ambassador to Warsaw. The Polish side has been conducting its own investigation into the tragedy. Deputy Foreign Minister Ignacy Niemczycki called the Israeli decision \"surprising\" and emphasized that the use of force must be proportionate, stating that any inappropriate use of force should result in consequences. Poland expects Israel to provide all requested explanations and materials for the ongoing Polish investigation.",
  "summary": "Poland demanded answers from Israel after the investigation into the Gaza strike that killed seven World Central Kitchen workers, including Polish citizen Damian Sobol, was closed.",
