A recent report from the Pentagon Inspector General revealed that 62 American service members were injured during the Biden governance’s Gaza aid pier project, which aimed to deliver humanitarian aid amid the conflict between Hamas and Israel.The pier, which cost approximately $230 million, was operational for only about 20 days. although no service members died or faced direct attacks, injuries were noted, but it is unclear if they occurred during official duties or were due to other medical factors. Additional challenges like bad weather and logistical issues were cited as reasons for the project’s limited success. Critics suggested that aid coudl have been delivered through Israel, which controls most land crossings into Gaza, rather than through the pier, which became unnecessary after only a few weeks of operation. Some commentators expressed concerns that Hamas often steals humanitarian aid intended for Gaza civilians. The situation has drawn internal criticism for President Biden regarding aid efforts and the Israeli military’s tactics in Gaza.

There were 62 American service members injured during the Biden administration’s Gaza aid pier project, marking a higher level of injuries than previously revealed.

The pier, which was meant to deliver humanitarian aid to residents of Gaza amid Hamas’ war with Israel, cost an estimated $230 million and was only operational for some 20 days, per Reuters, which cited a new release from the Pentagon Inspector General.

“Based on the information provided, we were not able to determine which of these 62 injuries occurred during the performance of duties or resulted off duty or from pre-existing medical conditions,” the government report said.

No service members died, nor were there direct attacks on the pier itself.

In May 2024, however, three service members endured non-combat injuries, and one was evacuated from the pier in critical condition.

Reuters cited “bad weather and distribution challenges inside Gaza” as factors that limited the success of the project.

The Pentagon Inspector General added that the military failed to “organize, train, and equip their forces to meet common joint standards.”

The Jerusalem Post issued an analysis of the Pentagon report, asserting that the United States could have merely delivered aid through Israel.

Because the nation now controls most land crossings into Gaza, the outlet suggested that the American military could have arranged to send trucks bearing aid from Ashdod.

“The pier was not necessary. Nevertheless, it set sail and was erected in May but only functioned for a few weeks due to bad weather,” the analysis contended.

Some critics of sending aid to Gaza base their reservations on the fact that Hamas, the Islamic terrorist group based in the area, often steals aid meant for civilians.

One report from i24 News in Israel published in late 2023 said that the Israel Defense Forces had filmed Hamas militants stealing humanitarian aid and beating the civilians from whom they had stolen the supplies.

“In footage captured by the IDF Border Defense Corps in Shejaiya, Hamas members are seen forcibly taking humanitarian aid from civilians, loading it onto a Hamas vehicle, beating civilians, and then driving to a Hamas-run site,” the IDF said.

“The IDF is continuing its efforts to enable humanitarian aid — including food, water, shelter supplies and medical equipment — to reach civilians in the Gaza Strip,” the statement continued.

“Since the beginning of the war, tens of thousands of tons of aid designated for international humanitarian organizations have entered Gaza.”

Former President Joe Biden had faced internal criticism from some Democrats over the alleged treatment of the Israeli military toward civilians in Gaza during their campaigns against Hamas.

Some saw the Gaza aid pier as an overture from Biden to the more progressive elements of the party who voiced skepticism toward Israel.
