UK planning begins for Gaza aid air drops

# A small team of British military planners and logisticians is being made available to help Jordan with air-dropping aid into Gaza. They could be deployed within the next two days. British Prime Minister Keir Stamer told the Mirror that the government was already working urgently with the Jordanian authorities to get British aid onto planes and into Gaza. The UK has also previously sent planes to directly drop aid, with UK forces having completed 11 airdrops into Gaza to deliver 110 tonnes of relief items as part of a Jordanian-led international air coalition.
