A Canadian government source told the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation that his country will begin air-dropping aid to Gaza within days.
The government source stated that Canada is considering different options for the air drops, but the option of using Canadian Armed Forces planes remains excluded so far.
Recently, aid funded by Britain was air-dropped to a hospital in northern Gaza. The Netherlands and France have also conducted air drops of relief materials.
He added that providing air drop operations in partnership with like-minded countries in the region, such as Jordan, is on the table.
Last week, Hassan stated that aid delivery is not going well and that the routine inspection process slows down the movement of supplies transported by trucks.
The Israeli occupation aggression on Gaza entered its 145th consecutive day, and the occupation's war machine continues its relentless aggression, placing the besieged Gaza population in a death triangle, represented by targeting, famine, and epidemics.
The ongoing aggression on Gaza has resulted in the martyrdom of 29,954 Palestinians, as well as the injury of 70,325 people since October 7, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza, with thousands missing under the rubble.
The Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement "Hamas," launched the Al-Aqsa Flood operation on October 7, in response to Israeli occupation violations in the occupied Palestinian territories, as mentioned.
In contrast, the Israeli occupation launched a military operation against the Gaza Strip called "Iron Swords," carrying out a series of intense raids on several areas in the strip, resulting in hundreds of martyrs and thousands of injured, in addition to the destruction of a large number of buildings, residential towers, institutions, and infrastructure.
The death toll of the occupation army rose to 582 since October 7, and 242 since the start of the ground operation on October 27.
Meanwhile, 3,007 occupation soldiers have been injured since the beginning of the invasion of Gaza, with 468 in serious condition, 793 with moderate injuries, and 1,746 with minor injuries.
