Hi there,

We need independent media more than ever. When we cover war and peace, we’re not brought to you by the weapons manufacturers. When we cover the climate catastrophe, we’re not brought to you by the oil, gas and coal companies. When we cover inequality, we’re not brought to you by the banks and other financial institutions. We’re brought to you by you, the listener, the reader and the viewer. For the last time this month, a group of generous donors will TRIPLE all donations made today, which means your $15 gift is worth $45. If you want Democracy Now! to keep bringing you the stories that matter most, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

New U.S.-Made Pier Breaks Apart Off Coast of Gaza, Halting Aid Shipments

HeadlineMay 29, 2024

On the humanitarian front, aid shipments to Gaza by sea have been halted after a new U.S.-made pier broke apart in rough seas. The temporary $320 million pier had only become operational less than two weeks ago. It is expected to take at least a week to fix.

In other news from the region, former Republican presidential candidate and ambassador Nikki Haley visited Israel on Tuesday and was photographed signing an Israeli artillery shell. She wrote the words “Finish Them!”
