In Gaza, planes dropped humanitarian aid into the sea, there were dead

The chaotic airdrop of humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip by foreign aircraft led to tragedy.

At least 13 residents of the Palestinian enclave died trying to retrieve boxes of food from the water that were dropped by planes into the sea.

The footage shows how numerous parachutes with humanitarian cargo land on the water surface.

As famine rages across Gaza, dozens of people, including children, have been forced to wade into the water in an attempt to retrieve drowning food. Unfortunately, several people drowned.

The current tragedy involving violations in the delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza by air is far from the first. Before this, several dozen residents of the enclave died as a result of multi-kilogram boxes of humanitarian aid falling on them, which fell down due to faulty parachutes.

The UN Security Council demands an immediate ceasefire in Gaza

The UN Security Council on Monday called for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, the international body's first demand to halt fighting that has killed more than 32,000 Palestinians.

The UN Security Council resolution calls for an immediate and unconditional end to Israeli violence against Gaza during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which ends on April 9, to speed up the provision of essential humanitarian assistance to Gaza, where beleaguered residents face famine.

The United States, which had vetoed previous draft resolutions calling for a ceasefire in Gaza, abstained from voting this time - a change in US position likely due to strong pressure from the American Muslim community on the Biden administration.

The remaining 14 council members voted for the resolution, reports bbabo.net with reference to Courthousenews.

In addition to an immediate end to the bombing and hostilities in Gaza, the resolution calls for the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages on both sides.

Palestinian Permanent Representative to the UN Riyad Mansour welcomed the ceasefire resolution as a necessary turning point in the conflict and called it long overdue.
