“No more innocent lives lost”: José Andrés mourns World Central Kitchen team killed in Gaza strike

Salon  

Chef José Andrés is “heartbroken and grieving” after seven World Central Kitchen aid workers were killed in an airstrike reportedly carried out by the Israel Defense Forces in Gaza early Tuesday morning. World Central Kitchen, the not-for-profit organization founded by the Spanish-American chef, provides fresh meals in response to humanitarian, climate and community crises, per its official website. It needs to start now.” WCK said it was “aware of reports” that members of its team were killed “while working to support our humanitarian food delivery efforts in Gaza.” The group explained in a separate statement that its members were traveling in a “deconflicted zone” in two armored cars branded with the WCK logo and a soft skin vehicle when they were struck. This is unforgivable,” said World Central Kitchen CEO Erin Gore.
