Israeli military publishes video of Gaza aid pier under construction

The Israeli military has released footage from construction work for a floating pier on the coast of the central Gaza Strip, part of a US-led project to bring aid into the besieged coastal enclave.

It said the process was kickstarted with a joint workshop with the US.

“The area of the project covers about 67 acres [27 hectares], which are allocated for the operation and the passage of large amounts of goods to the field,” the military said on its official Telegram channel.

“In addition, a remote-controlled hydraulic gate system is being built, allowing for operational and logistical flexibility. Extensive electrical work is being done to support the facility and to accommodate the arrival of aid, both by land and by sea,” it said.

The military also said that the Israeli Navy will secure the floating pier until the end of the project.





For now it's just an effective way to cut Gaza in half, no more walking along the beach back to Northern gaza. It's at the end of the new 2 mile wide corridor Israel made in central Gaza splitting the territory in half.



But for some reason they can't use the Netzarim corridor to bring aid in from Israel....
