AMMAN, July 15 (Xinhua) -- The Jordan Armed Forces-Arab Army on Monday carried out three airdrops of humanitarian aid on several locations in the southern Gaza Strip.

The airdrops came in support of the Palestinian people amid the ongoing conflict in Gaza, the state-run Petra news agency reported.

Two aircraft from the Royal Jordanian Air Force and one from Egypt participated in the airdrop operation.

The Jordanian Armed Forces confirmed that they will continue to send humanitarian and medical aid through an air bridge, delivering it via aid planes from Marka Airport to Egypt's El-Arish International Airport, or through airdrop operations in the Gaza Strip or ground aid convoys, to help the people in Gaza overcome their difficult situation.

Since the beginning of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict in the Gaza Strip, the number of airdrops conducted by the armed forces has reached 117, with an additional 266 airdrops in cooperation with other countries. Enditem
