Hamas Accused of Hiding Baby Formula, Blaming Israel for Hunger
According to Palestinian activist Ahmed Fouad al-Khatib, Hamas intentionally hid infant formula and baby food in warehouses within Gaza during the height of the hunger crisis. Al-Khatib asserted that Hamas aimed to exacerbate the humanitarian disaster and leverage the situation to pressure Israel and disrupt aid distribution, particularly by the GHF, an American aid foundation. This alleged strategy included blocking aid routes and threatening Gazans to amplify the starvation narrative. International media coverage, including reports from The New York Times, highlighted the severe malnutrition and suffering, which put pressure on Israel to increase aid.
