Humanitarian Aid Was Parachuted Into Gaza: It Was The First Time Since The Start Of The War

(LaPresse) The population of the Gaza Strip is exhausted and it is becoming increasingly difficult to distribute humanitarian aid to the Palestinian civilian population. Food and medicine were parachuted from the sky in a joint operation by Egypt, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and France. King Abdullah of Jordan wanted to personally take part in the mission.
The Jordanian army said six C-130 aircraft, including three Royal Jordanian Air Force planes, took off from Amman. Three other aircraft were involved in the mission: one from the United Arab Emirates, one from Egypt and one from France.
The airdrop of aid, the first ever carried out in the Gaza Strip, “is part of a humanitarian relief effort aimed at providing assistance to the population of the Gaza Strip,” said the Jordanian army, which also released images depicting King Abdullah II of Jordan show in one of the mission's aircraft.
