However, there was another chicken story from the region this past month that the media missed.
Fresh chickens are being imported into Gaza.
Gaza restaurants - yes, there are open restaurants in Gaza - have been offering chicken this month, at quite reasonable prices.
The Elomda Restaurant in Deir al Balah offers chicken and shawarma.
Sara and her friend went to a shawarma restaurant in southern Gaza a week ago.
Takeout chicken in northern Gaza earlier this month.

Making schnitzel in Gaza (although the processed chicken is from a can)
The Thailandy restaurant in central Gaza has been offering shawarma to hundreds of customers this month.

The evil Israelis are sending their non-kosher chickens to Gaza (the Hebrew sticker says they are "treyf.")
The price is less than $2.50 a pound.
In late July, Al-Marai al-Taibeh meat and fish importers showed huge pallets filled with fish and poultry imported from Israel.
Gaza doesn't exactly look like sub-Saharan Africa.
All of this comes from the incomparable Imshin who follows Palestinian social media and brings stories that are way too difficult for the professionals to publish.
