TL;DR Summary

Five people were killed and several injured in Gaza after a humanitarian airdrop's parachute failed to open, causing a pallet to crash into a crowd. The airdrops have been criticized as ineffective and costly, with aid agencies urging for the use of road routes to deliver much-needed supplies. As famine stalks the enclave and Israel continues to block assistance, a temporary pier off Gaza's coast and a maritime corridor from Cyprus are being considered as alternative aid delivery methods.
