US-based Gazan peace activist says Hamas hid infant formula, nutritional shakes for kids in warehouses to boost famine narrative

US-based Gazan peace activist Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib posts a video from Gaza, appearing to show activists uncovering tons of infant formula and nutritional shakes that were kept in Hamas warehouses and withheld from the population.

“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,” writes Alkhatib, who was involved in UAE efforts to drop aid into Gaza.

Hamas kept the aid from people to “worsen the hunger crisis and initiate a disaster as part of the terror group’s famine narrative,” Alkhatib writes in a post on X.

Israel had long denied allegations that there was a famine in Gaza and blamed pockets of hunger on Hamas looting.
