Aircraft from Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, and, for the first time in over a year, Spain, Germany, and France are airdropping humanitarian aid packages over the Gaza Strip.

Footage from the Strip shows the airdrop over central Gaza.

The IDF has not yet commented on today’s airdrops, but has previously said they are part of a “series of actions aimed at improving the humanitarian response in the Gaza Strip.”
