Canada has conducted its first humanitarian airdrop over Gaza using its own aircraft, delivering 21,600 pounds of aid as the region remains under heavy Israeli military assault. The Canadian government accused Israel of violating international law by obstructing humanitarian assistance and called for an immediate end to these restrictions. Canada also reiterated its intention to recognize Palestinian statehood at an upcoming United Nations meeting, increasing diplomatic pressure on Israel. The situation in Gaza continues to deteriorate, with widespread hunger, displacement, and ongoing conflict, while Israel maintains that its actions are necessary for security and denies allegations of war crimes.
