France begins airdrops of aid into Gaza
France airdropped food into the Gaza Strip on Friday, President Emmanuel Macron said, as he called on Israel to do more to alleviate the hunger afflicting Palestinians in the territory
“Airdrops are not enough,” Macron wrote on X. “Israel must open full humanitarian access to address the risk of famine.”
French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot told broadcaster France Info that four flights from Jordan would each carry 10 tons of aid supplies to the Gaza Strip.
Germany also began airdrops over Gaza on Friday, joining other countries like Egypt, Jordan and the United Arab Emirates.
