The disaster relief nonprofit World Central Kitchen (WCK), one of the few aid groups distributing food in Gaza, has suspended its work there. Its longtime partner, the American Near East Refugee Aid (ANERA) is also halting deliveries. The move comes on the heels of an Israel Defense Forces strike that killed seven WCK workers after they left a warehouse in two armored cars. ANERA’s CEO, Sean Carroll, speaks with The World’s host Carolyn Beeler.
