Twelve people drowned trying to get to aid dropped by plane off a Gaza beach, Palestinian health authorities have said, amid growing fears of famine nearly six months into Israel’s military campaign.
Video of the airdrop on Monday showed crowds of people running towards the beach, in Beit Lahiya in north Gaza, as crates with parachutes floated down, then people standing deep in water and bodies being pulled on to the sand.
In Washington, the Pentagon said three of the 18 bundles of airdropped aid into Gaza on Monday had parachute malfunctions and fell into the water, but could not confirm if anyone was killed trying to reach the aid.
Sure a better parachute might cost that but the development, testing, aquasition, supply chain bs, quality control, manufacturing proccess, etc etc keeps costing more and more while u make small improvments on reliability. Its more like a half the falure rate can easily cost double the price as i said its exponential 1% is a lot further away cost wise than u might think.
If it has a 17% failure rate the certification and quality control are pretty worthless.
Everything has an acceptable failure rate quality control just ensures it meets those standards 17% obviously was good enough
Mmm yes daddy continue to use numbers and corporate brain to justify the US military’s many failures to actually deliver aid (oh, and the people those failures killed)
Its called logic i aint justifying shit just explaining why it is the way it is. If ya dont like it feel free to call ir representatives anf vote as u see fit.
I would think you’d be more mad about the US bombs that have killed tens of thousands instead of the few squished by actual aid packages, but here we are.
