The non-profit organization World Central Kitchen (WCK) has identified its seven aid workers who tragically lost their lives in an Israeli military strike in Gaza. These individuals, described as "heroes" by WCK's CEO Erin Gore, included a dual US-Canada national, a Palestinian, three Brits, an Australian, and a Pole. They were killed when an Israel Defense Forces (IDF) strike hit a returning WCK convoy. The IDF has stated that the incident is under investigation and that the strike was a "grave mistake," clarifying that they did not intend to harm the aid workers.
The three Brits who were killed, John Chapman, James "Jim" Henderson, and James Kirby, were part of WCK's security team. Kirby, a military veteran, had served in the British armed forces in Afghanistan and Bosnia. Chapman, believed to be a former marine, will "forever be a hero," according to his family.
Among the other aid workers killed were Saifeddin Issam Ayad Abutaha, the youngest at 25, who volunteered as a driver with WCK, and Damian Sobol, a Polish national from Przemysl, southeast Poland, who was a member of the WCK team. Lalzawmi "Zomi" Frankcom, an Australian who had worked with WCK since 2019, was praised by Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese for her humanitarian efforts during the bushfires in Australia and her work overseas.
WCK, founded by chef José Andrés in 2010, has been providing food aid in warzones and disaster-stricken areas. In Gaza, WCK workers faced immense challenges to provide food aid, distributing millions of meals during the conflict between Israel and Hamas. The organization also launched a first aid ship from Cyprus to Gaza, aiming to distribute 200 tons of food, equivalent to roughly 500,000 meals.
