 The mission of a floating pier off Gaza that was built by the U.S. to deliver aid to Palestinians is ending. The pier faced challenges as the U.S. military worked to deliver the relief aid. Some of these challenges included high seas. A U.S. military spokesman says the pier was able to deliver aid for roughly 20 days. It helped facilitate about 20 million pounds of aid to civilians.
