More than 1,000 aid packages have been airdropped over the Gaza Strip since the resumption of the international airdrop operation on 26 July, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced on Friday.
Nine countries have participated in the effort, which aims to alleviate shortages caused by the ongoing blockade.
