as per "aid workers".

Good thing I didn't bet on the Guardian headlines saying "Food aid convoy for northern Gaza looted after a 13-day delay by UN".

And what does "As the convoy turned back after the delay" mean? Where is the evidence that the convoy turned back before the attack? Not even the nebulous "aid workers" said that.
