Rough seas force 4 US vessels to break free near JLOTS pier
Four U.S. Army vessels that were part of the JLOTS temporary pier mission bringing humanitarian aid to Gaza broke free Saturday from their moorings because of rough seas and ended up beached near the pier in Gaza and near Ashkelon, Israel, U.S. Central Command said.
"Efforts to recover the vessels are under way with assistance from the Israeli Navy," Central Command said in a statement.
No injuries were reported and no U.S. personnel will enter Gaza during the recovery efforts, according to Central Command.
