US-built Floating Dock Delivers Humanitarian Aid to Gaza Amid Israel-Gaza Conflict

Amid the ongoing conflict between Israel and Gaza, a US-built floating dock off the coast of Gaza has facilitated the delivery of humanitarian aid to the Palestinian population. The first trucks carrying relief supplies have crossed the makeshift pier, aiming to prevent a potential famine in Gaza.

The USA has set up the pier to deliver up to 150 truckloads of aid daily, although land deliveries remain crucial for providing essential food, water, and fuel. In response to the conflict, Spain has prohibited the docking of ships carrying weapons for Israel, aligning with its policy against arms exports to Israel.

This development comes as South Africa urges the International Court of Justice to order a halt to Israel's assault on Rafah, highlighting the escalating tensions and international concerns surrounding the conflict.

However, the pier project is not considered a substitute for land deliveries, which are needed to bring in all the necessary food, water, and fuel for Gaza.
