US Reestablishes Gaza Aid Pier to Resume Crucial Deliveries
Temporary pier, initially damaged by bad weather, repaired to facilitate humanitarian aid flow amid ongoing conflict.
- The US military has reattached the temporary aid pier in Gaza after storm damage halted operations for nearly two weeks.
- The pier aims to deliver food, water, medicine, and shelter to the besieged Gaza Strip, where aid access is severely restricted.
- Critics argue the pier is a temporary fix and call for reopening land routes for more effective aid distribution.
- Approximately 2 million pounds of aid were delivered during the pier's initial week of operation before it was damaged.
- The US plans to increase the volume of aid delivered through the pier, targeting up to 1 million pounds every two days.
