Israel has announced it will allow foreign countries, including Jordan and the UAE, to resume airdropping humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip as the region faces severe food shortages and rising malnutrition deaths.
The move comes after mounting international pressure and reports of mass starvation, with over 100 people reportedly dying from hunger-related causes. Humanitarian organizations warn that previous airdrops were insufficient to meet the needs of Gaza's population, and aid deliveries have been hampered by ongoing conflict and border restrictions. While Israel will coordinate these airdrops, critics, including Hamas, argue that such measures are inadequate and call for more substantial relief efforts.
The decision highlights the worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza and the urgent need for increased and sustained aid access.
