COPENHEGEN: Denmark will take part in airdropping humanitarian aid over Gaza, in an operation coordinated by Jordan and the United Arab Emirates, Danish media reported Tuesday.

“We have decided to participate in an airdrop over Gaza,” Danish Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen told public broadcaster DR.

“There is currently an open window until the end of August, during which Israel has allowed access to its airspace,” he added.

He noted that the method was “by no means an optimal way to deliver emergency aid.”

“It is a kind of emergency solution but it is also where we are now,” the minister said.
