Palestinians are dying in aid airdrops, says Gaza Civil Defense

(Al Jazeera Media Network) At least 18 Palestinians have died trying to recover airdropped aid in Gaza, according to Palestinian officials.

Mahmoud Bassel, a spokesperson for Gaza’s Civil Defense rescue service, said six bodies were recovered after a large group of men swam into the Mediterranean Sea on Monday to fetch aid parcels.

“Sometimes it falls into the sea, sometimes on civilians, sometimes on houses, sometimes on Israeli territory beyond the border fence,” Bassel was quoted by The Associated Press as saying.

Several people were injured and at least five killed after parachutes dropping aid over Gaza failed to open earlier this month.
