From The Daily Wire. The U.S. Department of Defense said on Tuesday that it has been forced to halt the use of President Joe Biden’s $320 million pier in Gaza because it has fallen apart.

Sabrina Singh, the Pentagon’s deputy press secretary, said at a press conference that the pier was “damaged and sections of the pier need rebuilding and repairing.”

She blamed the failure of the controversial project on “a perfect storm of high sea states” and “this North African weather system also came in at the same time.”

The U.S. Military will remove the pier from Gaza and bring it to Israel so it can be fixed and reconstructed, which is expected to take at least a week. …

The pier has largely been a disappointment for the administration after it deployed a thousand U.S. service members to open it.

After a full week of operations, only 820 tons of aid was offloaded from the pier. Roughly a third of that aid was hijacked and stolen.

Three U.S. service members were injured last week during an operation supporting the transfer of humanitarian assistance into Gaza. …
