Shuaib Yusaf, the CEO of the Al Khair Foundation, has issued a statement on the Israeli attack that killed its aid workers in Beit Lahiya in northern Gaza, Al Jazeera reports.
“It is with great sadness and regret that we announce the demise in Gaza of eight of our team’s dedicated humanitarian aid workers. They were killed in violation of the agreed ceasefire in a drone airstrike,” Yusaf said.
“The exact circumstances are still being established but we refute utterly any suggestion that those who were killed were militant or in any way connected with Hamas,” he added.
