The United States is looking at both military and commercial options to move humanitarian assistance into Gaza from sea routes, the White House said on Tuesday.
John Kirby, the White House national security spokesperson, told reporters the maritime route can move more volume of aid but it is more of a heavier lift logistically. Trucks are the best way, he said.
