One vehicle could be a mistake. Three vehicles spread over kilometers that were coordinating with the IDF cannot be a mistake.

It’s kinda funny that, like Russia, this invasion is just showing how a an ‘elite’, ‘gold-standard’, ‘most-moral’ military in the world is simply incompetent at actually running a war.
Given individual missions, soldiers can shoot their way in and out but they can’t handle communication between units.
I have to imagine the groups coordinating the safe passage of aid trucks are either shitting all over the missile teams in the post-op briefings or filled with absolute dumbasses.
Or communication isn't the issue and the IDF is full of people who have been taught that the end justifies the means.
The vast number of aid workers and journalists killed is a good sign that communication and target misidentification isn't the problem. The IDF is fine with killing anyone who they see as getting in the way.
I think the original commenter's point was that this was most likely planned. So, not that Israel is incompetent but Isreal is purposefully targeting trucks giving aid.
It's not incompetence.
They're just sorry they got caught
You mean scapegoated because this was very much intentional and came from the top? Yeah, I hate when that happens. Genocidal fucks.
They thought they were killing brown people.
Not that sorry though.
Here we go... trying to save face by sacrificing individuals
Honestly it wouldn't surprise me to find out it's all a lie and nothing has happened to anyone over this.
Just Bibi trying to cover his nazi, new holocaust tracks.
Honestly it wouldn’t surprise me to find out it’s all a lie and nothing has happened to anyone over this.
This is the most likely I'd say.
Two dismissals and some reprimands for such an obvious warcrime? Seriously?
They believed they were attacking Hamas gunmen...who were driving in a van that said "World Central Kitchen" on the roof? Pardon me if that does not seem like the most believable thing.
They can say it was at night so they couldn't read the logo or whatever. Regardless, the command structure that allowed this blindfolded and earplugged strike, where command authorities aren't informed of the coordination between aid groups and the IDF contacts extends beyond just the people fired and reprimanded.
Their excuses for these types of mistakes indicate a structured campaign of indiscriminate murder.
Fuck Israel.
Really, reuters? A "grave" error?
Seriously?
Are we a joke to you?
They're quoting their sources dude
We're a joke to them and their sources.
What do you think the term "grave error" comes from?
Yeah, I don't think Israel believes putting Palestinians in graves is an error.
