Overview
- The U.S. military has finalized the construction of two key sections of the Joint Logistics Over-the-Shore system off the Gaza coast.
- Adverse weather conditions, including high winds and sea swells, have delayed the positioning of the piers near Gaza.
- The MV Sagamore is prepared to transport aid from Cyprus to the floating pier, aiming to facilitate up to 150 truckloads of supplies daily.
- The initiative, costing over $320 million, represents a significant U.S. effort to improve aid logistics amid ongoing regional tensions.
- Alternative land routes for aid delivery remain preferable, but the piers serve as a critical supplementary channel.
