Chef José Andrés challenges criticism of Gaza airdrops: Bring food 'any way we can'
Chef and humanitarian José Andrés, whose nonprofit World Central Kitchen has been sending significant aid into Gaza amid the Israel-Hamas war, on Sunday pushed back on criticism that airdrops into the Palestinian territory are wrong because they are morally insincere.
“We need to bring food into Gaza any way we can,” Andrés told ABC News “This Week” co-anchor Jonathan Karl, calling the situation there “desperate.”
While Andrés said the broader goal should be to simply allow a “daily, constant and massive” flow of trucks into Gaza, “I don’t think we need to be criticizing that Jordan, America are doing airdrops. If anything, we should be applauding any initiative that brings food into Gaza.”
