Jordanian military planes dropped aid to northern Gaza today for first time in five months to help relieve the dire humanitarian situation in the enclave, an official source says.

Two C-130 planes belonging to the Jordanian air force dropped contained nearly seven tons of food and essential relief to areas the UN agencies identified as most in need and facing hunger, the source tells Reuters.
