US Military Pier for Gaza Aid Removed After Storm Damage
TL;DR
The U.S. military has removed a temporary pier off the Gaza coast due to damage from rough seas, and recovery efforts for two beached Army vessels are ongoing with Israeli navy assistance. The pier, part of a $320 million aid delivery operation, was operational for less than two weeks and had delivered over 1,000 metric tons of aid before being damaged. Repairs are expected to take more than a week.
