US 'Gaza Strip' operations suspended

Operations at the pier built by the US military off the coast of the Gaza Strip for humanitarian aid have been suspended.

In reports citing two US officials, the US press stated that humanitarian aid operations were suspended due to a section of the pier breaking off, and noted that poor weather conditions are believed to have caused the section to detach.

The report did not provide details on how large the detached section was or how long it would take for the pier to resume operations.

FOUR US VESSELS HAD DRIFTED

Four US vessels carrying humanitarian aid to the pier in question had drifted on May 25 due to strong winds.

In a statement issued by the US Central Command (CENTCOM), it was reported that the vessels had broken free from their moorings and drifted, adding, "Two vessels are currently anchored on the beach near the pier, while the other vessels have run aground near the Israeli city of Ashkelon."
