Gaza authorities criticize the airdrop of humanitarian aid after the deaths. At least five Palestinians were killed when the bales were dropped from airplanes.

Earlier it became known that the delivery of aid to the northern part of the Gaza Strip by air turned into a tragedy. The enclave administration noted that operations to drop humanitarian aid from airplanes are ostentatious and propaganda in nature, rather than humanitarian and practical. “What happened today is exactly what we previously warned about, that they pose a mortal threat to the lives of citizens,” RIA Novosti quotes the statement.
