According to Alkhatib, Hamas deliberately stored tons of baby formula in secret warehouses to exacerbate the hunger crisis in Gaza and promote a famine narrative aimed at pressuring Israel and restoring the UN&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/unrwa-director-responds-to-accusations-of-holding-hostages-delivering-rockets-our-trucks-are-bringing-in-wheat-flour\/\" title=\"UNRWA Director denies hostage claims, affirms delivering wheat flour\">aid distribution system<\/a>, which had been challenged by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF). Alkhatib claims this hoarding and deliberate waste of vital supplies were meant to <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >undermine alternative aid efforts<\/a> not controlled by the UN. He also points out that anti-Hamas activists who exposed these actions faced threats and vilification, especially from pro-Palestinian groups that overlook Hamas&#8217;s manipulation of humanitarian aid to mask the suffering of gaza&#8217;s civilians.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>In what was arguably both the 1) most infuriating and 2) least shocking story to come out of Tuesday, a Palestinian activist says that Hamas hoarded food meant for Gazans during the Israel-Palestinian conflict, including massive amounts of baby formula.<\/p>\n<p>The accusation came from Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib, an anti-Hamas activist, who hails from Gaza originally.

Now, activists in the Strip are documenting the waste and deliberate disposal of tons of infant formula, nutritional children&rsquo;s shake, and children&rsquo;s powdered milk, which Hamas had hoarded away, given the saturation of the coastal enclave with humanitarian aid after the ceasefire two months ago.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The GHF was bitterly lamented by Hamas, which went as far as to tell its own people not to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/nerve-media-gazans-whine-airdropped-aid-un-failure-caused-mess\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">take food from it<\/a>. This was because the United Nations was so ineffective at delivering aid to the people of Gaza they were actually anti-effective, basically condemning the people to starvation while propping up the Hamas revolutionaries who commandeered the food and supplies meant for those in need.<\/p>\n<p>And, Alkhatib said, anti-Hamas Palestinian activist had documented this activity &mdash; but were shut up by pro-Hamas voices.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;When countless other Palestinian activists and I from Gaza said this back in July, August, and September, we were villainized, attacked, threatened, and made into pariahs by the &lsquo;pro-Palestine&rsquo; industrial complex and activist mafias, even though for Gazans, the evidence was so clearly apparent before our eyes,&rdquo; he wrote.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;What those in the West continue to fail to understand is that there is no being pro-Palestine without also having a serious vigilance against Hamas&rsquo;s continued manipulation of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/china-mocks-and-attacks-the-united-states-on-u-s-soil-biden-admin-struggles-to-respond\/\" title=\"China Mocks And Attacks The United States On U.S. Soil; Biden Admin Struggles To Respond\">international public opinion<\/a> to hide behind the Strip&rsquo;s civilian population&rsquo;s suffering, something that the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/hamas-chief-ismail-haniyeh-killed-in-iran-washington-examiner-2\/\" title=\"... chief Ismail Haniyeh killed in Iran - Washington Examiner\">terrorist organization&#038;rsquo<\/a>;s own actions have led to and created.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">During the worst of the days of the hunger crisis in Gaza in the past six months, Hamas deliberately hid literal tons of infant formula and nutritional shakes for children by storing them in clandestine warehouses belonging to the Gaza Ministry of Health.<\/p>\n<p>The goal, as I said&hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/pANo9uHfAb\">pic.twitter.com\/pANo9uHfAb<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib (@afalkhatib) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/afalkhatib\/status\/1998244937356231110?\">December 9, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>And, according to the post author, this isn&rsquo;t the only evidence <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/ap-everything-soaked-winter-rains-gaza-bring-new-misery-palestinians\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">of Hamas<\/a> stealing food out there:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Yes, this is just a sneak peak and only what&rsquo;s been captured recently.<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib (@afalkhatib) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/afalkhatib\/status\/1998438312139227427?\">December 9, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Again, this is both reprehensible and yet totally not unanticipated.
