LARGE crowds turned out to pay tribute at the funeral of a British aid worker killed in Gaza.

James Kirby, 47, was one of seven World Central Kitchen workers killed in the Israeli attack on April 1.

He was part of a security team travelling with aid workers who had delivered more than 100 tons of food when IDF air strikes hit the convoy.

His mum Jacqui said: "James was a remarkable man, a true friend to so many people and, above all, he was my son. I will miss him beyond measure and cannot comprehend a future without his presence.
