Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has admitted Israel's role in an airstrike in Gaza that killed seven World Central Kitchen workers, including Australian Zomi Frankcom.

Australian PM Albanese has demanded a thorough investigation into the incident, echoed by UK PM Sunak and US President Biden who both call for accountability.

President Biden personally extended condolences to World Central Kitchen founder José Andrés, highlighting the impact on humanitarian efforts in Gaza.

The incident has prompted a military investigation, with international leaders urging for a transparent inquiry and measures to ease the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

José Andrés has suspended World Central Kitchen operations in Gaza, criticizing the Israeli government and advocating for peace and humanitarian aid continuity.

Global leaders, including the UK Prime Minister, have called for an independent investigation and immediate actions to protect civilians and aid access in Gaza.

The Israeli military has expressed regret over the mistake, while the incident has led to retaliatory attacks from Hezbollah and raised concerns over press freedom in Israel.
