        @BBCBreaking no aid for those in Gaza though. Strange that as the humanitarian situation is the same if not worse

        @matteus1986 @BBCBreaking So, when Israel brought Gaza loads of humanitarian aid, did you look the other way? Your statement is false.

        @BBCBreaking too vulnerable to ground attacks. Air drops safer for air crews
