Jordan airdropped medical aid on Gaza early on Monday, according to a post on social media platform X from Jordan's king and state media.
"A royal air force plane dropped urgent medical aid using parachutes to the Jordanian field hospital in Gaza whose supplies were about to run out due to the delay of delivering aid through Rafah crossing", Jordan's state news agency said citing a military source in the General Command of the Jordanian Armed Forces.
Jordanian King Abdullah II said on X that the country's "fearless air force personnel" dropped the aid at midnight.
"This is our duty to aid our brothers and sisters injured in the war on Gaza. We will always be there for our Palestinian brethren," he added.
Jordan announced last week recalled its ambassador to Israel and told the Israeli ambassador to stay away in protest at the Israeli bombardment of Gaza, saying the attacks had killed innocents and caused a humanitarian catastrophe.
Israel's indiscriminate military campaign against the besieged strip has killed more than 9,770 people.
Israel has occupied Palestinian territory, including Gaza, for decades and has launched several previous assaults on the territory.
The current war started when Hamas launched a surprise attack inside Israeli territory on 7 October, killing over 1,400 people and taking more than 240 hostage.
