The airdrop came only a few days after Canadian aid had been sent into Gaza. That effort was conducted by Jordan, which borders Israel and the West Bank. At the time, Anand posted a photo of pallets with Canadian flags taped to them.
Honestly airdrops are like one truck worth of supplies, inefficient, and not super effective. Pressure needs to be put on Israel to allow food and aid trucks back into Gaza. This isn’t going to stave off starvation, it’s making Canada look good. Still with the climate as it is, I can’t knock anyone doing anything trying to help. Keep fighting everyone.
I learned how ineffective airdrops are from trying to sustain an encircled division in Hoi.
As a Canadian, I am happy to see this.
I just hope they were able to get it there quickly enough that they didn’t have to refrigerate the cheese curds
Good. More. At this point we as a group of nations should be airlifting aid trucks in and out of Gaza since the Israelis aren’t letting sufficient aid in.
they want them to eat a bit before Israel murder them. Just start sanctioning Israel and stop selling and buying arms
Ha ha ha. I also like shitting on good news by showing how it could have been better. Good one!
I am tired of performative actions while sending arms to israel to kill gazans and continue genocide

Thank you for posting this message. I fully agree with you.
Was it promptly followed by an Israeli bombing?
