U.S. airdrops aid into Gaza amid worsening humanitarian crisis

Three U.S. officials confirmed Saturday that airdrops carried out by C-130 cargo plane alongside the Jordanian air force parachuted 38,000 prepackaged meals into Gaza. President Biden announced the move Friday, following a number of similar operations announced by countries including Egypt, France, Jordan and the United Arab Emirates. Humanitarian aid has been scant in the northern part of Gaza, where aid groups are warning of imminent famine.
