US Humanitarian Pier in Gaza Faces Operational and Security Challenges

Aid deliveries disrupted by rough seas, security concerns, and logistical issues as questions arise about the pier's long-term viability.

Over 1,000 metric tons of aid have arrived but remain undelivered on Gaza's beach due to suspended operations.
The UN and other aid groups paused their involvement following an Israeli military operation near the pier.
Rough seas have repeatedly damaged the pier, leading to costly repairs and operational halts.
US troops involved in the mission face significant risks, including attacks and hazardous working conditions.
The pier's long-term effectiveness is questioned amidst ongoing logistical and security challenges.
