> just air dropping tons of food onto Sudans population centers? Super inefficient, but makes for great photos. Good piece on NPR US airdrops of food into Gaza here: "the first thing to understand about airdrops is they are probably the most inefficient possible way to deliver aid. So they're used very, very sparingly and only when there is truly no other way to get aid in. "...ballpark eight to 10 times as expensive logistically to deliver by air as by overland transport" https://www.npr.org/2024/03/06/1236019060/gaza-israel-airdrop-aid-humanitarian-united-states https://www.npr.org/2024/03/06/1236019060/gaza-israel-airdro... Basically because of the logistical nightmare it is to airdrop food, there is no way that you can feed millions in famine with it. You need trucks on the ground bringing in food.
