The remarks come as a ship loaded with supplies prepares to leave Cyprus on Sunday to provide aid to Palestinians in Gaza. It would be the first vessel in what the European Union has indicated would be a humanitarian sea corridor.
Wasn’t it going to take 60 days to build the dock?
Perhaps they’re using a large ship to get the goods close to shore, then smaller boats to ferry the goods from the ship to the shore. Very inefficient compared to unloading the ship straight onto a dock, but without a dock it still gets the goods there with more time and effort.
Building a port facility in hostile territory from the sea is the kind of d-day scenario that the US military will train for and have some kind of plan for. I don’t know how the 60 day figure came to be, but that’s almost certainly not how long it takes to actually construct a usable facility once the resources have been committed and are on the scene.
