Drugs found in Gaza aid as IDF destroys Hamas weapons depots in mosque, arrests West Bank terrorist
"Hamas remains the main obstacle to further improving the situation in the Gaza Strip," a senior COGAT official said.
The Defense Ministry's Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) reported on Monday that drugs had been smuggled into the Gaza Strip concealed within humanitarian aid supplies. COGAT cited a World Central Kitchen (WCK) report, which indicated that illegal substances were found during the preparation of canned pepper packages in WCK's kitchens in Gaza.
The packages contained six bundles of hashish weighing approximately 600 grams, along with 160 grams of other illicit materials. COGAT strongly condemned the incident and vowed to continue combating attempts to misuse humanitarian aid mechanisms. This follows a day earlier when COGAT released an analysis arguing that the amount of aid entering Gaza significantly surpasses the humanitarian needs as defined by UN agencies and assessments.
