More on Hamas blocking aid into Gaza

Hamas media is filled with articles about how desperate Gazans are for food, how that are forced to eat expired food.

Yet as I reported yesterday, Hamas is urging NGOs not to accept a food distribution system that Israel is proposing.

The COGAT X account gives a few, but not many details about the plan - and it shows the reason Hamas is so against it:

There are many international organizations and UN agencies operating in the Gaza Strip.

To assure organizations' operations stay neutral and impartial, it is essential to implement a structured monitoring and aid entry mechanism to prevent Hamas from seizing humanitarian supplies. The mechanism is designed to support aid organizations, enhance oversight and accountability, and ensure that assistance reaches the civilian population in need, rather than being diverted and stolen by Hamas.

In accordance, COGAT held meetings this week with UN agencies and international organizations operating in Gaza.

During the meetings, the mechanism was introduced, as well as the difference from the current method, along with the adoption of aid entry mechanisms and oversight. The exploitation of aid by Hamas was also discussed.

No wonder Hamas wants agencies to reject it - because it would lose its gravy train.

And isn't it interesting that COGAT shows the meetings but the media isn't reporting on this at all?

Even more interesting is that Israel has to pixelate the photos of the NGO members participating in a meeting to facilitate aid into Gaza? What are they afraid if?

Obviously, Hamas.
