The United States announced on Tuesday that they will soon begin construction of a temporary port to supply aid to the Gaza Strip. This comes as nearly 34,200 people have died in the Israeli offensive against the Palestinian enclave, controlled by Hamas.
Pentagon spokesman General Patrick Ryder stated that all necessary ships are in the Mediterranean region and ready to start construction when given the order. He emphasized the need for coordination with partners who will support the initiative. American ships will transport aid to the dock, and then it will be loaded into non-military trucks belonging to humanitarian NGOs.
Israel’s restrictions on delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza have left the Palestinian population without reserves, leading to starvation and disease on top of the casualties from bombings. The temporary port is expected to provide much-needed relief to the suffering population in Gaza, who have been enduring a blockade for over a decade now. The move is being seen as a positive step towards peace and reconciliation between Israel and Palestine.
