Elderly Palestinian Woman To Al-Jazeera Reporter Near A Khan Yunis Hospital: Hamas Takes All The Aid To Their Tunnels And Homes; They Can Shoot Me, I Am Not Afraid Of Them

An elderly Palestinian woman standing outside Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis told an Al-Jazeera Network (Qatar) reporter that Hamas takes all the aid that is coming into the Gaza Strip for themselves during a December 6, 2023 live broadcast. In response to the reporter's assertion that no aid is coming into Gaza, she said: "All the aid goes to [the tunnels] underground." The reporter then claimed that a lot of aid is coming in and distributed to the people of Gaza, to which the woman replied: "Hamas take everything to their homes."

The reporter said: "It seems that the situation is unclear."
