In response to the escalating humanitarian crisis in Gaza, the U.S. Air Forces Central (AFCENT) has deployed Air Mobility Command (AMC) C-17 aircraft to enhance airdrop operations in the region. This joint effort, in collaboration with U.S. Army Central Command, aims to expedite the delivery of much-needed aid to civilians affected by the ongoing conflict.

The combined airdrop operation, which also involved C-130J Super Hercules aircraft, was conducted on March 13, 2024, from undisclosed locations within the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility. The deployment of C-17 Globemaster III aircraft and personnel with expertise in sustained airdrop operations from South Carolina's Joint Base Charleston demonstrates the commitment of the U.S. military to supporting relief efforts in Gaza.

The airdrops of humanitarian supplies, including food, medical supplies, and other essential items, are crucial in providing relief to the people of Gaza who have been caught in the crossfire of the conflict. The deployment of C-17 aircraft will significantly enhance the capabilities of delivering aid quickly and efficiently to those in need.
