英国死因调查官表示,针对2024年4月在加沙遇难的三名英国援助工作者的死因调查可能扩大范围,并传唤以色列国防军和英国军方指挥官提供证据1。遇难者为57岁的约翰·查普曼、33岁的吉姆·亨德森和47岁的詹姆斯·柯比1。调查将探究以色列当局的责任、英国军事监视的作用,以及实施空袭的武器是否由英国制造1。
以色列上月宣布不会对该次空袭进行刑事调查,这一决定遭到英国、澳大利亚和加拿大政府的谴责1。英国皇家空军的监视飞机在空袭当天在加沙上空停留约五小时1。代理亨德森进行辩护的大律师皮特·韦瑟比引用了索尔兹伯里诺维乔克事件作为先例1。下一次死因调查前期审查定于3月进行1。
A British coroner has indicated that an inquest into the deaths of three British aid workers killed in an airstrike in Gaza in April 2024 may expand its scope to compel Israeli military and UK military commanders to provide evidence 1. The investigation will examine the responsibility of Israeli authorities, the role of British military surveillance, and whether the weapon used to kill the workers was of British manufacture 1.
The three aid workers who died were John Chapman, aged 57, Jim Henderson, aged 33, and James Kirby, aged 47 1. A Royal Air Force surveillance aircraft remained over Gaza for approximately five hours on the day of the airstrike 1. Israel announced last month that it would not conduct a criminal investigation into the strike, a decision that the governments of the United Kingdom, Australia, and Canada characterized as "shameful" 1. A preliminary hearing in the inquest is scheduled to take place in March 1. Pete Weatherby KC, representing Henderson, has cited the Salisbury novichok incident as a precedent for the expanded inquiry 1.
