Israel Bows to Pressure, Allows Foreign Airdrops of Aid into Starving Gaza

Under mounting international pressure and amid reports of worsening starvation in Gaza, Israel has announced it will allow foreign countries, including Jordan and the UAE, to resume airdropping humanitarian aid into the territory. The move comes as aid agencies and the UN warn of a deepening hunger crisis, with increasing numbers of children and adults dying from malnutrition. While Israel insists there is no widespread famine, aid groups argue that airdrops are insufficient and call for full access for ground deliveries. The UN and other organizations have criticized both the limited scope of airdrops and delays in distributing aid already inside Gaza. The crisis has reignited calls for a ceasefire, the release of hostages, and a political solution to the conflict.
