"US Military's Offshore Aid Delivery Efforts in Gaza Under Scrutiny"

The U.S. military plans to construct a floating pier off Gaza's coastline to deliver 2 million meals daily to Palestinians facing starvation, as part of a broader "maritime corridor" initiative. The pier and causeway will take about 60 days to build and involve 1,000 U.S. troops, with aid routed through Cyprus for inspection by Israel. The operation aims to address the worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where over 576,000 people are on the brink of famine, and faces logistical and security challenges. Despite concerns about potential targeting by Hamas, the U.S. will continue precautions to reduce risk during aid deliveries.
