The first aid drop by the US on 3 March, carried out with Jordan’s Air Force, contained enough food for more than 38,000 meals. A defence official told CBS News, the BBC’s US partner, this involved three C-130 cargo planes which dropped 66 bundles. And the US says it dropped 27,000 “meal equivalents” and nearly 26,000 bottles of water into north Gaza on Tuesday.
