"Pentagon Affirms Plan to Build Gaza Aid Pier Despite Uncertainties"
The U.S. military is proceeding with plans to construct a pier off the Gaza coast to facilitate humanitarian aid deliveries, with the project expected to be completed by the end of the month or early May. Despite recent incidents involving the killing of aid workers by Israel, the Defense Department confirmed that the construction is on schedule, with Israel's agreement to provide security during aid transfer and distribution. Army boats and a ship carrying equipment for the pier construction are currently en route to the Mediterranean Sea.
