Jordanian Helicopters Initiate Humanitarian Aid Deliveries to Gaza
Jordan takes a significant step in aiding Gaza as its helicopters commence humanitarian missions post-ceasefire.
The Jordanian air force has mobilized 16 Blackhawk helicopters, executing these urgent missions at an airstrip within Israeli-held territory between the border and Wadi al-Salqa. The helicopters land momentarily on a compact strip surrounded by razor wire, emphasizing the precarious nature of the operation.
Upon landing, the aid was swiftly unloaded with a palpable sense of urgency; the helicopter rotors never ceased spinning. The aid was organized in collaboration with the World Food Programme, ready to address the pressing needs of the Gazan population, who have faced substantial hardships over the last 15 months of conflict.
Jordan's Deputy Prime Minister, Dr. Mohammad al-Momani, described the human suffering he witnessed in Gaza as "horrific" and "inhumane." He also stressed Jordan's commitment to partnering with the global community to alleviate these conditions.
Amidst the backdrop of a ravaged landscape, the delivery operation highlights international efforts to provide critical assistance, extending hope for recovery in a time of dire need.
