The Gaza floating pier is a floating dock facility proposed by the U.S. Biden Administration immediately before the 2024 State of the Union Address on March 7, 2024.
It is being constructed by U.S. military forces on ships offshore the Gaza Strip, then connected with the shore by causeway, and when complete would enable delivery of maritime cargo for humanitarian assistance to Gaza.[1][2][3][4]
President Biden warned Israel that it "must also do its part." "To the leadership of Israel I say this," he said. "Humanitarian assistance cannot be a secondary consideration or a bargaining chip. Protecting and saving innocent lives has to be a priority."[5]
Israel will inspect the humanitarian aid in Cyprus prior to shipping, and again at checkpoints in Gaza when it is delivered off the pier. The pier has the capacity to deliver 150 trucks of aid per day.[6]
