Airborne aid killed 5 people

On March 8, humanitarian aid from the United States and Jordan was dropped from the air in the Gaza Strip when the parachute failed to open and fell on people, resulting in the death of five people. Among the dead are children.

The United States and Jordan are denying any involvement in the humanitarian aid crisis that killed Palestinians.

A U.S. Defense Department official told CBS News that preliminary analysis showed that the U.S. plane was not responsible for the deaths on the ground, but that the investigation should continue. According to him, the military received a confirmation that all boxes with humanitarian cargo landed normally.
