According to Rogers, the pier has proven to be ineffective, risky, and a waste of hundreds of millions of dollars of taxpayer money.

Following multiple accusations against Israel on the subject, a new report has revealed the truth regarding the Gaza famine situation.

Yesterday, Hamas fired mortars at Israeli soldiers protecting a United Nations humanitarian aid convoy in central Gaza Strip today, shown in military footage published later that day.

The U.N. is concerned for the safety of its workers, even as Israeli soldiers risk their lives protecting humanitarian aid in Gaza.

Sections of US built Gaza Aid Dock have been found on Tel Aviv Shores. The parts were collected by municipal workers to be given in to Israeli police and IDF for inspection.

Israeli military urges UN to distribute hundreds of aid packages piling up in the unloading area of the US JLOTS pier.

According to Army Radio reporter Doron Kadosh, Defense Minister was not informed and did not approve of the decision to announce an 11-hour tactical pause to ensure the flow humanitarian aid in the southern Gaza Strip.

Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich also attacked the General Staff this morning regarding its decision to have a daily humanitarian pause. 

Uncertainty and challenges for Gaza's humanitarian pier amid operational setbacks.

The IDF made this statement following claims it was declaring daily pauses to operations to allow the movement of aid to civilians.

After the pier in Gaza was severely damaged and even began to sink into the sea: the US announces that aid shipments resumed last night after repairing a temporary pier built in the United States.

The pier had suffered damage and some of its stabilizing boats detached after stormy waters.

A senior Palestinian source told the AWP agency that discussions are being held to hand over Rafah crossing to Palestinian control, "to ease the entry of goods and humanitarian aid into the Strip and the movement of people to and from it."

IDF Spokesperson in Arabic Avichai Adraee reports that the number of trucks passing through Erez West and Kerem Shalom crossing were double that of last week.

According to an Egyptian source, the aim of this aid is to reduce the shortages in the Gaza Strip until Israel withdraws from the Rafah crossing in favor of a PA contingent.

Two of the four boats stabilizing the pier detached and ended up on the shore near Ashdod. US sources say the pier is still operational despite the damage.

Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich is demanding a clarification from the Prime Minister and the war cabinet about the resumption of trade between PA-controlled territories and Gaza contrary to the cabinet's decision.

The movement, which disrupts or tries to block aid going into Gaza while there are still hostages, says it intends to keep going: "The nation has awoken and is unwilling to supply goodies to Nukhba terrorists at the expense of our hero fighters."

While the pier itself was put together at Ashdod, the IDF's engineering unit worked with COGAT to make the needed preparations on land.
