New Delhi: America said yesterday that it has set up a temporary pier near Gaza. So that commercial ships can remain in the Mediterranean Sea and can deliver aid to the citizens of Gaza by sea. This water route will be an alternative to the land route coming from Israel or Egypt.
According to the headquarters of the US Central Command in Bahrain, this temporary pier has been built to deliver humanitarian aid to the citizens of Palestine. However, this is not stopping US troops from going to Gaza. Now the entire system will be organized in a few days. Then from this pier the trucks will land on the beach (in Gaza). UN aid workers and staff there will coordinate and deliver assistance to civilians in Gaza.
This program has been named Joint Logistics Over the Shore (JLOTS).
This relief operation will be divided into two parts, first, relief food and other items will be landed on the floating ghat. From there the trucks will reach the beach via the causeway (sitting bridge) built in the middle of the sea. The entire process was postponed for a week due to the cyclone that hit the Mediterranean Sea last week. Even America Central Command said.
On one hand America prepares to help Palestine and on the other hand it sends arms worth one billion dollars to Israel.
Israeli Defense Minister Om Galant said on Thursday that more troops had been sent to reinforce the siege of Rafah in the south of the Gaza Strip. The motive behind this is to weaken Hamas. This siege will continue.
