Gaza-based militants attack Israeli forces preparing for US pier
Source: Politico
Gaza-based militants launched mortar rounds on Wednesday at Israeli forces making preparations for the U.S.-led effort to establish a new maritime aid route for Gaza, according to three U.S. officials.
No American equipment was damaged as the U.S.-led project which will establish a pier a few miles offshore as well as a causeway anchored to the beach to expand access to humanitarian aid is not yet complete, said one of the officials. All were granted anonymity to discuss sensitive plans.
But the attack came as U.S. military personnel were scheduled to soon begin construction of the pier, which the U.S. hopes will drastically expand the amount of aid that can reach the enclave. The Pentagon has said the project will be operational by the end of the month or early May, and U.S. military ships are standing by to start the work.
Its not clear whether the militants knew what they were attacking, said the first U.S. official, adding that they may have simply seen a target of opportunity to strike the Israel Defense Forces.

(40,238 posts)Politico is in league with those who seek to sanitize the facts. The perpetrators of the attack on the pier are Hamas Terrorists.
So infuriating.

(1 post)The IDF falsely claimed an attack on the US pier in Gaza was under way, according to trusted sources in Tel Aviv. In fact, every effort is being made to undermine US efforts, which is in accordance with Washington, since they don't wish to be bothered with anything that does not involve remuneration. Egos are hung out like dirty laundry as Netanyahu takes another bow before the black swan of destiny. And, yeah, this is definitely about as true as the news from mainstream sources in Israel and the US...maybe more so since I freely noted it is crap and hardly worth the electrons used to print it.
