A military plane dropped dozens of black parachutes carrying food aid in Gaza City.
GAZA CITY – A military plane banked over the war-ravaged ruins of Gaza City dropping dozens of black parachutes carrying food aid.
"People are dying just to get a can of tuna," said Mohamad al-Sabaawi, carrying an almost empty bag on his shoulder, a young boy beside him. The aid entering the Gaza Strip by land is far below pre-war levels, at around 150 vehicles a day compared to at least 500 before the war, according to UNRWA, the UN agency for Palestinian refugees.
The air operation has also been marred by deaths. Five people on the ground were killed by one drop and 10 others injured after parachutes malfunctioned, according to a medic in Gaza. "Looking at Gaza, it almost appears that the four horsemen of war, famine, conquest and death are galloping across it," he added.
