TOPSHOT - Humanitarian aid is dropped on the Gaza Strip, west of Gaza City, on March 25, 2024 amid the ongoing conflict in the Palestinian territory between Israel and the militant group Hamas, with the background showing Israel's Rutenberg power station near Ashkelon. Seven people have drowned in the Mediterranean trying to reach aid airdropped into Gaza, the Hamas-run territory's health ministry said on March 26. Six people were also injured in the previous day's airdrop, the ministry said. Hamas said a total of 18 people have now been killed in drownings or stampedes since aid airdrops to the starving north of the besieged territory began.
