Gazans face extortionate prices for smuggled aid on black market • FRANCE 24 English

Bars and tins of food all marked not for sale are up for display at this Market it’s very frustrating these products should not be sold they’re meant to be humanitarian aid for civilians this box of French aid is being sold by a man who’s been displaced

From the north of Gaza he said he bought it himself to sell the contents it’s written not for sale but I’m not making much money I bought it at high price from a Smuggler on this black market one 25 kilo sack of flour cost €700 35 times more than before the war

Humanitarian groups say only a huge influx of Aid will prevent this exploitation and saave off famine in Gaza

A black market selling smuggled aid is growing in Gaza as people in the war-torn enclave become increasingly desperate for food and everyday products amid the relentless fighting between Israel and Hamas. While none of the aid was originally intended for sale, some Gazans are now forced to pay exorbitant prices to obtain basic supplies stolen from aid convoys.
