US removes Gaza aid pier due to weather and may not put it back, officials say
Fox News
U.S. officials said the pier created by the U.S. military to deliver aid to Gaza has been removed due to weather; whether or not to re-install the pier is under consideration.
The U.N., which has the widest reach in delivering aid to starving Palestinians, hasn’t been distributing food and other emergency supplies arriving through the pier since June 9. The pause came after the Israeli military used an area near the pier to fly out hostages after their rescue in a raid that killed more than 270 Palestinians, prompting a U.N. security review over concerns that aid workers’ safety and neutrality may have compromised.
U.N. World Food Program spokesman Steve Taravella said Friday that the U.N. participation in the pier project is still on pause pending resolution of the security concerns.
