According to reports, the convoy was struck three times in succession by airstrikes, with a drone further following the wounded aid workers to make sure they all ended up dead.
"No legit pretext and precise coordination with the IDF," tweeted someone named "Ryan Grim" (@ryangrim) about the attack.
Early on, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyau's official position was that "s**t happens" and "war is hell," the implication being that it was just an accident. Others are not so sure, including an unauthorized military source that reportedly spoke to Haaretz.
What apparently happened is that the operation room in charge of securing the convoy route identified someone on one of the trucks who was armed. Israel determined this person to be a possible terrorist.
By the time preparations were made by the IDF for an attack, the truck with the armed person on it arrived at a warehouse where it met the three WCK vehicles carrying seven volunteers.
A few minutes after the truck arrived, the three vehicles left the warehouse but without the truck supposedly carrying an armed potential terrorist. The convoy then traveled via a route that the WCK had already confirmed with the IDF.
"The IDF was also made aware of the timing of this particular convoy," noted Dimi Reider about how Israel knew this was a civilian aid situation.
"At some point, while convoy was traveling on the authorised route, the Operations Room ordered the drone operator to strike one of the vehicles. Some passengers were seen leaving the stricken vehicle and moving to the other two. They had time to alert superiors they had been attacked, but seconds later were struck by a second missile."

When the aid workers then tried to move to the third car following the second bombing, a third missile hit their convoy, killing all of them.
"This is actually far worse than I imagined," Reider said.

Cold-blooded murder
Reider noted that the first and last vehicle in the convoy were a full two kilometers apart from one another, meaning Israel deliberately targeted them using separate missiles.
This was not, in other words, a singular airstrike like Israel initially tried to pass it of as using the "accident" excuse. It was a targeted series of three missile strikes that left seven innocent people dead at the hands of the IDF.
Reider believes that the situation and associated coverup are a classic Israeli "kastach" move, kastach being an acronym that basically stands for covering one's own butt to protect the narrative.
Israel cannot even say for sure whether or not the initial target actually had a weapon, let alone prove that the person was a terrorist. And yet this was enough for the IDF to strike an aid convoy not once, not twice, but three times with missiles that, quite frankly, were paid for by U.S. taxpayers.
The WCK, just to clarify once more, had already set up the travel route with the IDF. It had been pre-arranged to secure safe passage, but the IDF violated the plan and proceeded to murder in cold blood the aid workers who are there in Gaza to help innocent people get needed food, water and medicine.
"The IDF has been flaunting its close collaboration with WCK for its own propaganda purposes (specifically: look, aid is getting to the strip and also: look, we don't need UNRWA)," Reider added.
