The Coordination of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) announced a halt Sunday in humanitarian aid crossing into Gaza until further notice due to the security situation in Israel resulting from incoming ballistic missile fire from Iran.

COGAT said that this should not affect the humanitarian situation, since large shipments of food have been entering the territory that far exceed the nutritional demands of the population.

“Following the missile attacks launched by Iran against the State of Israel, a number of necessary security measures have been implemented, including the closure of the crossings into the Gaza Strip, among them the Kerem Shalom Crossing and the Rafah Crossing, until further notice,” COGAT said in a statement on X.

“It should be emphasized that the closure of the crossings will not affect the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip,” the statement continued.

“The substantial quantities of food that have entered the Strip since the beginning of the ceasefire significantly exceed the nutritional needs of the population, according to UN methodologies.”

“COGAT will continue to maintain ongoing contact with the international community and will provide updates on any developments in accordance with the security situation assessment,” the statement concluded.

Indeed, Gazawood, an organization whose name is a play on Hollywood and which posts videos exposing the manipulations Gazans use to dupe international media into buying a particular narrative, posted a video on X Sunday showing the owner of a popular shawarma restaurant called Shawarma Fahed looking rather well-fed as he promotes a special for his restaurant. Gazawood commented that such low prices are not available even in Israel.

“1 kilo of shawarma for only 90 shekels!” Gazawood wrote. “(You won’t find a price like this in Israel — not even for half a kilo),” it added parenthetically.
