Aid agencies have condemned air drops into Gaza as a “grotesque distraction,” warning they cannot meet the massive humanitarian need. The Israeli military, along with the UK, UAE, and Jordan, have launched air drops amid blocked land routes. The UN says 6,000 aid trucks remain stalled, awaiting clearance. Over 127 deaths due to malnutrition, including 85 children, have been reported. The World Food Programme warns one in three Gazans aren’t eating for days. Aid officials stress ground access is safer and more effective. Dropped parcels have injured civilians, sparking chaos. Gaza faces mass starvation under what experts call a “man-made famine.” (PC: X)
