France is sending four flights carrying 10 tonnes of humanitarian aid to Gaza from Jordan on Friday, French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot said. “This is emergency aid but still not sufficient” in the face of this “revolting” situation, Mr Barrot told broadcaster franceinfo. “There is not a minute to lose, 5,000 children under five years old have been admitted for treatment due to acute malnutrition,” he said.
