"US Conducts First Airdrop of Emergency Aid in Gaza Conflict"
The US has conducted its first aid airdrop for Gaza, delivering over 30,000 meals in conjunction with the Royal Jordanian Air Force, following President Biden's pledge to increase aid after a deadly incident where at least 112 people were killed during a rush for aid. The airdrop, part of efforts to alleviate the humanitarian crisis, comes as the UN warns of an imminent famine in northern Gaza. The US move underscores the severity of the situation, as aid agencies note the challenges of delivering supplies by air. Israel has expressed support for the mission, while leaders worldwide have called for a full investigation into the tragic incident.
