      To be fair, the Israelis are basically going out of their way to make it effectively impossible to deliver aid through normal land routes. And Egypt is… well, doing Egypt things. This was the best short-notice “we need to do at least something, asap” option. It’s bad that this happened, but the airdrop was essentially the only way that it was realistically going to get done without involving the IDF.
