Pallets of Food and Water might be too dangerous BUT there is another way!
How do you airdrop desperately needed food to refugees without the payload falling into crushing the recipients?
Just throw them out of the Aircraft so they can float down individually – Called "Fluttering" when first used by the military in Bosnia.
No need for any distribution personal on the ground either!

Water can also be safely dropped.
You can drop water bottles in the water (lots of ocean around).
The bottles will not break, they float to the surface and can be gathered by the locals.
(Half full bottles work better) Small 4 oz. juice/water foil packets can also be dropped safely with the food.
