Jeremy Bowen: Air dropping aid is an act of desperation that won't end hunger in Gaza
Veteran BBC Middle East Editor Jeremy Bowen argues that air dropping aid into Gaza is a largely ineffective and even dangerous measure. While visually appealing, these drops deliver minimal aid compared to ground-based deliveries and pose a risk to civilian lives on the ground. Bowen characterizes air drops as a 'desperate' measure that will not solve the widespread hunger crisis in Gaza, implying a need for more sustainable and effective solutions.
