Cool, maybe Isreal should let aid trucks through instead? And, y’know, maybe stop doing genocide while they’re at it.
Their excuses are horseshit. “We be to check every truck.” K. “Protesters are blocking the roads.” Like the IDF actually cares about getting physical with Palestinians.
FFS.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
At least five people were killed and 10 others injured when airdropped aid packages fell on them in the Al Shati camp west of Gaza City, according to a journalist on the scene.
Muhammad Al-Sheikh, Head of Emergency Care Department at Al Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza City confirmed five people were killed in the incident.
In a separate incident on Thursday, footage obtained by CNN shows dozens of parachutes carrying parcels descending from a plane conducting an air drop.
The US and other countries have been air-dropping humanitarian aid into Gaza amid warnings from the United Nations that hundreds of thousands in the besieged enclave are on the brink of famine.
After the plans were announced by US President Joe Biden last Friday, aid agencies criticized them as ineffective given the scale of the need in Gaza.
Richard Gowan, the International Crisis Group’s UN director, said: “Humanitarian workers always complain that airdrops are good photo opportunities but a lousy way to deliver aid.”
The original article contains 486 words, the summary contains 164 words. Saved 66%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
So that why Biden supported this…
