Gaza in a humanitarian crisis, Jordan airdrops medical aid and food to a

A Jordanian plane airdropped vital medical equipment and food to a field hospital in the besieged Gaza Strip on Sunday evening, about two weeks after the war between Israel and Hamas began .

The news was confirmed on Monday morning by Israel and Jordan itself. Israel's military said on Monday it had "coordinated" with Jordan to airlift a field hospital in the Gaza Strip.

"Overnight, in coordination with the IDF, the Israel Defense Forces, a Jordanian plane air-dropped medical equipment and food to the Jordanian Hospital in the Gaza Strip," the Israeli Army said in a statement.

According to her, the medical equipment will be used by the medical staff for the patients.

Meanwhile, Jordan's King Abudallah II said on Monday morning that his country sent "emergency medical aid" to the field hospital overnight.

"It is our duty to help our wounded brothers and sisters in the Gaza war. We will always stand by our Palestinian brothers," he said.

Israel has surrounded the Gaza Strip and controls what goes into it and what comes out of it. A week ago, an agreement was reached to allow the introduction of humanitarian aid through the Gaza crossing point with Egypt, Rafah, but in limited quantities.

The war between Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas began on October 7, after Hamas carried out attacks on towns in southern Israel, killing 1,400 people, mostly civilians, and kidnapping over 240 others.

Since then, Israel has been attacking the Gaza Strip by air, sea and land in an attempt to destroy Hamas. According to Gaza's Ministry of Health, which is run by Hamas, more than 10,000 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli bombing. /REL
