NY Times: US Gaza aid pier may be dismantled soon, after little success
The aid pier built by the US for some $200 million may soon be dismantled, having so far completed a total of 10 days of actual operations, The New York Times reports.
Officials have told aid organizations in Gaza the pier could be taken apart early in July, the paper reports, having done little to alleviate goods shortages in the Strip.
The pier has been mostly inoperative since it was inaugurated in mid-May due to weather damage, weather threats, security concerns and the like.
