Everyone in Gaza knows that Hamas routinely steals aid trucks, then distributes some of the aid to its own members, and keeps another tranche for resale to the Gazan civilians who are supposed to be receiving the aid for free. The Israelis have been complaining about this since October 2023. Latterly, they have been joined by some brave Gazan civilians, living in areas controlled by the clans fighting Hamas, who have complained about the Hamas thefts to Western journalists. So have such truth-tellers as the Palestinian analyst Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib. Now CENTCOM has released a video it took of Hamas operatives looting an aid truck. More on this film can be found here: “US Central Command posts video of suspected Hamas terrorists looting Gaza aid convoy,” by Seth J. Frantzman, Jerusalem Post, November 1, 2025:
United States Central Command posted a video of what it said was “suspected Hamas operatives looting an aid truck traveling as part of a humanitarian convoy delivering needed assistance from international partners to Gazans in northern Khan Yunis” on Friday.
This important development was posted on behalf of the US-led Civil-Military Coordination Center (CMCC), which was established this past month as an outgrowth of the ceasefire deal agreed to in Egypt.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio added that “Hamas continues to deprive the people of Gaza of the humanitarian aid they desperately need.
“This theft undermines international efforts in support of President Trump’s 20 Point Plan to deliver critical assistance to innocent civilians,” he added. “Hamas is the impediment. They must lay down their arms and stop their looting so that Gaza can have a brighter future.”
The CMCC is supposed to help stabilize Gaza in line with requirements set forth by the US-brokered deal. US Central Command personnel arrived in Israel in October to take part in the initiative, which includes about 40 countries.
Eventually, this is supposed to pave the way for international involvement in Gaza to ensure that the peace progresses with Hamas disarmed and replaced as a government. Hamas continues to control around half of Gaza. Israel has accused the terrorist group of twice attacking IDF soldiers in deadly incidents in which three soldiers were killed.
“US Central Command is confirming what everyone in Gaza has known, but was denied for two years by international journalists, activists, politicians, NGOs, and supposed ‘experts’,” wrote Palestinian analyst Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib.
“Hamas has been systematically stealing, looting & siphoning aid meant for suffering Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. Footage from an American surveillance drone monitoring the ceasefire between Hamas and Israel captured footage of a specific example that shows Hamas in the act.”
“What makes the conclusion of the video 100% is the presence of a pick-up truck full of Hamas operatives, passing by the truck as the knocked-out driver is being thrown in the median divider of the road. These are the pick-up trucks that Hamas’s “police” and enforcers use to roam around Gaza, execute, murder, kidnap, torture, and disappear people.”
“Stuffing Gaza full of aid and goods, only for Hamas’s terrorists to steal, sell, or tax such items as a means of making money and staying a relevant fighting force, is never going to work as a long-term strategy. The issue isn’t about a shortage of aid; it’s about who will access this aid. There is no lasting stability or peace until Hamas is removed from Gaza, a step that will require the use of force against this fascist militia….
As Palestinian analyst Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib notes, everyone in the region knew that Hamas was systematically looting aid, but with their staffs full of anti-Israel animus, NGOs in Gaza chose to accept Hamas’ denial. Now a CENTCOM drone has caught Hamas operatives knocking out a truck driver and looting the aid cargo on his truck, moving it to the pickup trucks that are Hamas’ vehicles of choice, to be spirited away to Hamas-controlled warehouses. There’s no way to deny this evidence. It’s what Shakespeare called “the ocular proof.”

Any real famine in Gaza is because of Hamas , which first started this war on October 75h 2023, then , as this article reveals , starts looing tie aid mean for the people of Gaza.
Those Muslim terrorists of Hamas are so such thieves and despicably callus that that steal aid send peaceful people of Gaza and use in an different ways for the murderous jihad against the State of Israel and the Jewish people.
As an Israel government official had explained “They, Hamas, steal the aid, they resell the aid, they use the money to rearm, then they to attack again …. Aid that goes Hamas is not humanitarian ….”it’s “Enabling the enemy to resupply itself so that can regroup and reattack us..” [1]
Just thinking about this the Gazan people wouldn’t really need al that aid if Hamas hadn’t started this war on 10/7/23.

Those thieving Muslim terrorists of Hamas with their stealing the food aid meant for the civilians of Gaza, who also happen to be Muslims, this further exposes the cruel selfish unconscionable wickedness of the Hamas savages
Then Hamas official spoken have the much lying gall to say to the nations of the world “Look, those terrible Israelis are deliberately starving the civilian population of Gaza.”

All lies and willing deception by the media. They’ve bought into the Islamist narrative of victimhood and are sticking by that no matter the evidence.
The MSM will never show this.

You are right, and I often wonder who really owns the media. How much of the medias stock is held by Islamic oil rich countries?
