The Israeli military released photos on Thursday that it says show a staffer with the aid group Doctors Without Borders wearing military fatigues at a gathering of Gaza militants.

The military says that Fadi al-Wadiya, who was killed in an airstrike earlier this week, was a "significant operative" in the Islamic Jihad group and was involved in its rocket programme.

Doctors Without Borders, known by its French acronym MSF, did not respond to a request for comment on the photos, which were released late Wednesday. The aid group said earlier that it had no indication he was a militant.

Three women, including an Indian-origin activist, were charged in court for organising a procession that delivered letters to the presidential palace in support of the Palestinian cause.
