France and Jordan airdrop aid to Gaza
2024-01-06
La Belle France and Jordan have teamed up to airdrop seven tons of aid to civilians and aid workers in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
, President Emmanuel Macron says.

"In a difficult context, La Belle France and Jordan delivered aid by air to the population and those aiding them," Macron writes on X.

"The humanitarian situation remains critical in Gaza" after three months of conflict, he adds.

Macron’s office says the "extremely complex operation" took place late Thursday, saying it had been made possible by close ties between the French and Jordanian militaries.

Each nation sent a C-130 transport plane with mixed French-Jordanian crews, bringing a total of seven tonnes of "humanitarian and health" aid, the presidency said.

The supplies dropped by La Belle France and Jordan were equipped with systems that remotely guided them to a Jordanian field hospital operating in the territory, the French presidency says.

Thursday’s mission "allows us to show that such operations are possible," the Elysee adds, without saying whether it would be repeated.
