To be clear, these are IDF-led/protected "gangs," not Palestinians. So it's looting food and medical aid to prevent it from going to Gazans, not Gazans stealing from themselves.
Looting is now a huge obstacle to distributing aid in Gaza. UN memo obtained by @washingtonpost.com says gangs “benefit from passive if not active benevolence” or “protection” by IDF. One gang leader established compound in zone “controlled & patrolled by IDF.” www.washingtonpost.com/world/2024/1...

A U.N. memo obtained by The Post concluded that gangs “may be benefiting from a passive if not active benevolence” or “protection” from Israel’s military.
