Israel-Hamas War: Parachute fails to open during Gaza aid airdrop | 5 dead, many injured | Oneindia
Tragedy struck Gaza as a humanitarian airdrop turned fatal, claiming the lives of five individuals and leaving ten others wounded. The incident occurred on Friday morning near the al-Shati refugee camp, a region already ravaged by hardship. Witnesses recounted how a pallet of aid, intended to provide relief to those in desperate need, went awry when its parachute malfunctioned, sending the parcel crashing down on a group of individuals ranging from men to children, all eagerly seeking sustenance and supplies. Among the ruins of their homes in northern Gaza, where basic amenities are scarce, hundreds of thousands face the looming threat of famine. The injured were swiftly transported to Gaza City's al-Shifa hospital for urgent medical attention.
