A witness in Gaza has said that he saw an airdrop of aid hitting a house “like a rocket” after its parachute did not open, Al Jazeera reports.
Mohammed al-Ghoul told the AFP news agency that he and his brother followed the parachuted aid in the hope of getting “a bag of flour”.
“Then, all of a sudden, the parachute did not open and fell down like a rocket,” hitting a house, he reportedly said.
Reports say that five people have been killed and several others injured in Gaza by aid airdrops that are being carried out by several countries.
Jordanian and US military officials denied that aircraft from either country caused the fatalities.
