“Three U.S. C-130 cargo planes dropped 66 total bundles, equating to about 38,000 pork-free meals, into the territory on Saturday morning. The bundles were split between three planes, the official said.

“The airdrop is expected to be the first of many announced by President Joe Biden on Friday. The aid will be coordinated with Jordan, which has also conducted airdrops to deliver food to Gaza.

      Yes, yes, Palestinians are lucky to have US’ help. If it wasn’t for US, they could avoid genocide against them, but on the other hand they would miss these free goodies.
