Pictures: U.S. Army Vessels Beached as Heavy Seas Hit Gaza Aid Deliveries<\/h3>\n

Heavy seas tore four U.S. Army vessels from their moorings Saturday while they were trying to assist humanitarian aid deliveries to Gaza.<\/p>\n

Two vessels are beached along Israel\u2019s coast near Ashkelon while the other two are anchored on the beach near the temporary pier built and put in place by the U.S. military, U.S.Central Command announced.<\/p>\n

No U.S. personnel were injured by the stormy seas, CENTCOM said, while Israel Defense Forces are assisting in recovering the vessels, and the pier remains fully functional.<\/p>\n

The disruption is one of many affecting operations at the temporary pier, whose deployment was delayed until last week due to stormy seas and other causes.<\/p>\n

The temporary structure, announced by President Joe Biden in his State of the Union address, was completed last week, and the Pentagon said some 569 metric tons of aid had been brought ashore thus far.<\/p>\n

However, the Pentagon is unable to say how much, if any, of that aid has actually reached the organizations that are supposed to distribute it, as reports have emerged of Palestinians simply seizing aid from the back of delivery trucks, as Breitbart News reported.<\/p>\n

Reuters reported \u201cthere has been no aid delivered to a U.N. warehouse from a U.S.-built pier for two days.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Times of Israel is reporting an American vessel used to unload humanitarian aid from ships to the Gaza Strip via a floating pier disconnected from a small boat tugging it this morning due to stormy seas, causing it to run aground on the coast of Ashdod just North of Gaza.<\/p>\n

A second US Army vessel also ran aground attempting a rescue. American troops can be seen standing helplessly on the beach. Hat tip to Anonymous for the head’s up.<\/p>\n
