The US plans a temporary port in Gaza for humanitarian aid access. Israel has collaborated “very closely” in the development of the initiative, according to Washington.

The structure will be able to receive the cargo of “hundreds of trucks a day,” with water, food, medicine, and provide shelter to displaced people. Initially, the shipments will come from the port of Larnaca, on the island of Cyprus, the closest European Union country to Gaza (about 370 kilometers)
