U.S. aims to bring supplies to Gaza Strip by sea; several weeks until start.

In the Gaza Strip, where fighting between Israel and Hamas continues, aid supplies are only allowed to enter through two checkpoints in the south. Food and other supplies are in short supply, with the situation particularly serious in the north. President Biden plans to reveal these new policies in his State of the Union address, which will be delivered to Congress on the 7th and will outline the government's policy for the coming year.
