UNRWA head says polio campaign may be paused after IDF detained convoy [View all]

This is the headline from a joint Reuters/Times of Israel report. Apparently, despite this convoy of personnel and vehicles used for the polio vaccine campaign having been given authorization, they were taken into custody at a check point and while being detained the IDF had bulldozers come along and inflict damage to the vehicles. The IDF is apparently claiming justification because it had information that "suspects" were in the convoy. Although no "suspects" were found.
