None of the aid that has been unloaded from the temporary pier the US constructed off the coast of Gaza  has been delivered to the broader Palestinian population, as the US works with the UN and Israel to identify safe delivery routes inside the enclave, the Pentagon said on Tuesday.

Several desperate Gazans intercepted trucks delivering aid from the pier over the weekend, leading the UN to suspend the delivery operations until the logistical challenges are resolved.

The US is working with Israel and the United Nations to establish “alternative routes” for the safe delivery of the 569 tons of aid transported to Gaza since last week, Pentagon spokesperson Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder said on Tuesday.

        Instead of Israeli Defence Force

        We call them Israeli Offense Force

        Because at this point it’s not defence anymore. And it never has been. They’ve attacked everyone in Palestine ever since the colony of Israel was created.

          Thanks for clearing that up. I had been reading it as Israeli Occupational Forces.
