"Pentagon's Gaza Aid Efforts Hindered by Delivery Obstacles"

Despite 569 metric tons of aid arriving at a U.S.-built temporary pier in Gaza, none of it has been distributed to Palestinians by aid organizations, with looting prompting the suspension of aid deliveries. Alternative routes for safe movement of staff and cargo have been established, but the distribution of assistance is pending due to security conditions. The pier, operational since Thursday, has fallen short of its goal to bring in 90 trucks a day, with the U.S. military working to overcome logistical hurdles and increase aid distribution.
