The US military has ended its mission to operate a temporary floating pier to deliver more aid to the Gaza Strip.
Supplies from Cyprus would now be shipped by US vessels to the Israeli port of Ashdod.
The pier was only operational for about 20 days due to bad weather, technical and security problems.
The UN and other humanitarian organisations have said the total delivered via the pier represents a tiny fraction of the aid required by the 2.2 million Palestinians in Gaza.
