Israel is operating a two-tier import system for Gaza, allowing commercial traders to bring in “dual-use” items that humanitarian organizations are barred from importing, according to reporting by the Guardian. Items blocked for aid groups on security grounds include generators, tent poles and other life-saving supplies, yet the same goods have entered Gaza for at least a month via private traders and are now sold at steep mark-ups. Humanitarian, diplomatic and UN sources say this disparity undermines aid operations while enriching traders who can secure Israeli permits as well as the Israeli economy. Aid officials say the system has also fueled an illegal wartime economy. Beyond the dual-use list, Israel has banned aid groups from importing items it deems non-essential, including paper and pencils needed to restart schooling for 600,000 children, as well as certain foods like beef and mutton to nourish Gaza’s famine-ravaged population. 1.6 million people will face “crisis” levels of hunger in the next four months, according to the IPC report. 70% of newborns are underweight and pregnant women are making impossible choices, as detailed below.
