Netanyahu laments Israel’s ‘unintended’ killing of aid workers in Gaza
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday lamented the killing in an Israeli strike of seven people working for the World Central Kitchen aid group in Gaza, describing the incident as tragic and unintended.
“This happens in wartime. We are thoroughly looking into it, are in contact with the governments (of the foreigners among the dead) and will do everything to ensure it does not happen again,” Netanyahu said in a video statement.
Netanyahu was released from hospital on Tuesday after hernia surgery and said he was recovering.
In a video released by his office, Netanyahu thanked his doctors for performing “successful hernia surgery”.
Last year, Netanyahu underwent surgery to have a pacemaker implanted.
