COGAT informed international officials that Gaza private sector merchants suspended goods coordination due to Hamas extortion, threats, and forced taxation demanding cash and cash per truck.

Drugs were concealed in packages of canned peppers arriving in the Gaza Strip as part of humanitarian aid shipments and were discovered in World Central Kitchen facilities. COGAT condemned the smuggling, stating that the incident highlights Hamas's exploitation of aid mechanisms.

The Office of the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories reveals the situation in the Gaza Strip since the ceasefire began: more than 2 million tons of food, a 72% decrease in prices, and an increase of over 50% in hospital bed occupancy. "The volume of aid significantly exceeds the defined needs - Hamas is interfering with humanitarian activity."

The Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories published on Wednesday on the unit's Arabic Facebook page an unusual message regarding the Yellow Line: "It is strictly forbidden to approach the Yellow Line deployed along the Strip in accordance with the ceasefire agreement."
