Four US Army boats, loaded with tonnes of equipment and steel pier segments, left Virginia, heading to Gaza as part of the effort to expand the delivery of food and other supplies to starving Palestinians.

They will build and begin to operate a floating dock at a yet-to-be-announced site along the Gaza shore, to deliver aid.
