Sgt. Quandarius Davon Stanley, a 23-year-old U.S. soldier who was badly hurt last summer while carrying out his duties on the U.S. President Joe Biden’s temporary pier off the coast of Gaza, died from his injuries, according to reports.
“Stanley was injured while supporting the mission that delivered humanitarian aid to Gaza in May 2024 and was receiving treatment in long-term care medical center,” Capt. Shkeila Milford-Glover, a spokesman for the 3rd Expeditionary Sustainment Command, said, according to CNN.
The report said it was unclear how Stanley was injured.
Biden, with growing domestic pressure, announced in March the plans to build the temporary pier off Gaza’s coast on the Mediterranean to help speed up the transfer of humanitarian aid to the starving people in the enclave.
