STORYLINE:
Aid was airdropped on Thursday into Khan Younis where people were displaced from eastern Khan Younis to other areas of the city.
Planes were seen flying over the Strip, dropping supplies for the thousands of displaced people.
Aid officials have said that airdrops are not an efficient means of distributing aid and are a measure of last resort.
U.S. and international officials and private aid organizations say only a steady daily flow of hundreds of truck shipments through land borders can address the need for food and emergency aid in Gaza.
More than one million people there are facing famine and all 2.3 million are struggling for food.
Palestinians are facing widespread hunger because fighting in the nearly nine-month Israel-Hamas war, Israeli restrictions on border crossings that are far more productive than airdrops and the attacks on the aid convoys have severely limited the flow of food, medicine and other supplies.
