The US Responds to Gaza Crisis: Temporary Port to Alleviate Starvation and Disease Suffering

Nearly 34,200 people have died in the Israeli offensive against the Palestinian enclave controlled by Hamas. In response to this crisis, the United States announced on Tuesday that they will soon begin construction of a temporary port to supply aid to the Gaza Strip. Pentagon spokesman General Patrick Ryder stated that all necessary ships are in the Mediterranean region and ready to start construction when given the order.

Ryder emphasized the need for coordination with partners who will support the initiative. He explained that 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 will help alleviate some of these struggles and provide much-needed supplies to those in need.
