Foreign Minister Auska condemned Israel's failure to investigate attacks on charitable organizations

The Ministers for Foreign Affairs of the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada issued a joint statement on 21 December condemning Israel's decision not to investigate the death of seven staff members as a result of an Israeli attack on the charity “World Central Kitchen”. The statement stated that the decision of the Australasia countries, which had consistently urged Israel to investigate the matter thoroughly and to hold Israel accountable, was “disgusting” with the announcement by the military that it would not open a criminal investigation without further explanation。
