McCain said Sunday that two of WFP\u2019s warehouses had been \u201crocketed\u201d and a staffer injured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When such large-scale military operations take place, Dujarric said, \u201cyou can only imagine the difficulties in distributing the aid, both for the safety of those who are trying to get it and those who are trying to distribute it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maj.

Part of the structure broke apart in rough seas and bad weather late last month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Saturday\u2019s fighting, followed by the pause for the security review, blocked the planned distribution of aid from the pier, the humanitarian official said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">President Joe Biden ordered the U.S. military to construct the pier in March, in hopes of carving out an alternative aid route as the fighting and Israeli restrictions sharply limit shipments through land borders. But&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2024\/05\/28\/aid-deliveries-suspended-after-rough-seas-damage-us-built-gaza-pier\/\" target=\"_blank\">rough seas in the Mediterranean<\/a>, insecurity within Gaza and a surge in fighting since early May mean the pier, completed in mid-May, has been able to operate for only about a week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ryder, pushing back against claims on social media, denied that any aspect of the pier or its equipment had been used in Saturday\u2019s military operation. The Pentagon says an area south of the pier was used for the return of the freed hostages back to Israel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cParticularly in this environment, given what you\u2019re seeing play out in the Israel-Hamas conflict, there is a lot of misinformation and disinformation about what U.S. forces are or are not doing,\u201d he told reporters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ryder said the U.S. did an air drop of more than 10 metric tons of ready-to-eat meals Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">U.S. and international officials and private aid organizations say only a steady daily flow of hundreds of truck shipments through land borders can address the need for food and emergency aid in Gaza. More than 1 million people there are facing famine and all 2.3 million are struggling for food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><i>Lederer reported from the United Nations.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S. military plans to stockpile aid shipments on a secure Gaza beach as the U.N. pauses distribution from the U.S.-built pier over security concerns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":82497,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-nofollow":"","_yoast_wpseo_canonical":"","_acf":"","_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":70,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_smg_distribution_targets":[]},"categories":[100,12,25,70],"tags":[],"coauthors":[7171],"class_list":["post-79302","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily-news-roundup","category-news","category-newsletters","category-your-army"],"acf":{"subheadline":"","legacy_arc_id":"KQ74NUZDHBFZ5PXEHE2RFULMIE","arc_canonical_url":"\/news\/your-military\/2024\/06\/10\/us-will-store-aid-on-gaza-beach-as-un-pauses-distribution-from-pier\/","remove_feature_photo":false,"is_sponsored":false,"subtype":"","redirect_url":"","disable_inline_ads":false,"native_logo_pretext":"Presented By:"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v28.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>US will store aid on Gaza beach as UN pauses distribution from pier - Army Times<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The U.S. military plans to stockpile aid shipments on a secure Gaza beach as the U.N. pauses distribution from the U.S.-built pier over security concerns.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"US will store aid on Gaza beach as UN pauses distribution from pier\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The U.S. military plans to stockpile aid shipments on a secure Gaza beach as the U.N. pauses distribution from the U.S.-built pier over security concerns.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/armytimes\/news\/your-army\/2024\/06\/10\/us-will-store-aid-on-gaza-beach-as-un-pauses-distribution-from-pier\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Army Times\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2024-06-10T22:10:23+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2026-08-08T16:18:37+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Ellen Knickmeyer, Edith M.
