Aircraft from the United Arab Emirates and Jordan airdropped 28 packages of humanitarian aid in the northern and southern Gaza Strip today, the Israeli military says.

The IDF says the airdrops were carried out “in accordance with the directives from the political echelon and as part of the cooperation between Israel, the UAE, and Jordan.”

The airdrops are part of a “series of actions aimed at improving the humanitarian response in the Gaza Strip,” the military says.

“The IDF will continue to work in order to improve the humanitarian response in the Gaza Strip, along with the international community, while refuting the false claims of deliberate starvation in Gaza,” it adds.
