I wish the Minister a good afternoon. Yesterday, the RTÉ news website aired some very revealing footage of a parachute airdrop of food supplies into the Gaza Strip, which took place yesterday. The humanitarian operation was carried out by aircraft from France, Jordan, the UAE and Qatar. It seems to me that this is precisely the type of humanitarian operation that Ireland should be involved in. It seems to chime perfectly with our values-based foreign policy. What are the Minister's thoughts on at least the principle of Ireland participating? Would he agree to raise this matter with the Tánaiste to see whether it would be feasible?
