"U.S. Conducts Emergency Airdrops of Aid into Gaza Amid Escalating Conflict"
TL;DR Summary
The U.S. and Jordan conducted a second aid air drop into Gaza, following an initial drop over the weekend, as part of a sustained campaign to provide humanitarian assistance. Aid groups emphasize that air drops alone are insufficient given the scale of the crisis, with a quarter of Gaza's population on the brink of famine. Limited access to Gaza has prompted countries to resort to airdrops, as efforts to deliver aid by land face obstacles such as border crossings and Israeli military clearance.
