The Jordan Armed Forces-Arab Army said on Tuesday that it conducted eight joint airdrops of aid to Gaza with several countries.
The airdrops, which came as part of continued efforts to deliver humanitarian aid to the residents of the Gaza Strip, were conducted by three C130 aircraft belonging to the Royal Jordanian Air Force, three American aircraft, one Egyptian aircraft, and one French aircraft, the state-run Petra news agency reported.
The relief and food aid targeted several sites in northern Gaza, and it included materials provided by the World Food Programme, Petra reported.
The operation is part of Jordan's ongoing efforts to send more medical, relief, and food aid to the people in the Gaza Strip to alleviate the effects of the conflict and compensate for the severe shortages in food and medicine due to the continued Israeli aggression, according to the agency.
The armed forces emphasized continued commitment to sending aid through an aerial bridge, whether through aid planes from Amman's Marka Military Airport to El-Arish International Airport in Egypt's North Sinai or through airdrop operations to the Gaza Strip.
