ALBAWABA - Palestinian authorities revealed that Gazans have found narcotic pills hidden placed inside flour bags, which are being distributed by the US-backed aid group, Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF).
In a statement released by the media office in Gaza, the government revealed that prescription painkiller "Oxycodone" was spotted inside flour bags.
"It is possible that these pills were deliberately ground or dissolved inside the flour itself, which constitutes a direct assault on public health,” Gaza's government warned.
The government blamed Israel, saying it is the one responsible for this "heinous crime", in which it wants to spread addiction and destroy the Palestinian social fabric from within.
"This is a part of the ongoing Israeli genocide against the Palestinians," it said, calling Israel’s use of drugs a "soft weapon in a dirty war against civilians."
According to the Ministry of Health, at least 549 Gazans have been killed and over 4,000 wounded by Israeli fire near aid centers and UN food truck locations since May 27.
