United States and Jordan begin humanitarian airdrops into Gaza

← Back to Dashboard
📅 2 March 2024 📍 Palestine

US and Jordanian forces conducted a joint airdrop of food into Gaza. The United States said the operation delivered about 38,000 meal equivalents. Airdrops offered a visible route for aid but could not match the scale or reliability of expanded land access, and raised safety and distribution concerns. The episode sharpened debate over why food and essential goods could not enter at scale through crossings and over land routes.
