Australia 'outraged' after Israeli decision not to prosecute over killing of aid worker in Gaza
Three British nationals, a Palestinian, a Pole and a dual US-Canadian citizen were also killed in the attack. In its statement, the IDF said the presence of an armed guard with the convoy had not been flagged with it before the convoy set off, and that he was falsely identified as a Hamas fighter. It demanded an independent investigation as "the IDF cannot credibly investigate its own conduct"."At the time of the lethal attacks, the IDF knew that our team in Gaza was unarmed and posing a threat to nobody," it said in a statement.
