{Israel’s top court allows aid groups facing Gaza ban to continue working
The Supreme Court ruling comes after Israel said it would ban 37 aid groups from Gaza for failing to follow new rules. Israel’s Supreme Court has ruled that dozens of international aid agencies can continue to operate in the Gaza Strip and other Palestinian territories, freezing an earlier government decision that barred aid groups that failed to comply with new rules. In a ruling on Friday, Israel’s top court issued a temporary injunction to allow the NGOs to continue most of their activities while it considers a petition from 17 aid agencies against the government ban. Israel had announced it will ban 37 aid groups from war-torn Gaza, the occupied West Bank, and occupied East Jerusalem on March 1, a move that experts warned could have potentially devastating consequences for Palestinians. Aid agencies – including Doctors Without Borders, known by its French initials MSF, Oxfam, the Norwegian Refugee Council and CARE – were notified by Israeli authorities in December that their Israeli work registrations had expired and that they had 60 days to renew them and provide lists containing personal details on their Palestinian staff. The organisations say compliance with the Israeli orders would expose their Palestinian staff to potential retaliation, undermine the principle of humanitarian neutrality and violate European data protection law. In a statement after Friday’s ruling, Shaina Low, communication adviser for the Norwegian Refugee Council, said the decision was welcome, but pointed to the difficulties that aid agencies continue to face in Gaza. “The injunction pauses immediate closure. It does not restore visas, reopen access or resolve the wider restrictions that continue to affect aid delivery. “Despite a ceasefire agreement, conditions in Gaza remain catastrophic, and humanitarian needs in the West Bank continue to grow,” said Low. Athena Rayburn, executive director for the Association of International Development Agencies, said they were “still waiting to see how the injunction will be interpreted by the state and whether or not this will mean an increase in our ability to operate,” adding that the situation inside Gaza remained “catastrophic”.
Israeli attacks continue in Gaza
In Gaza, at least six Palestinians were killed in Israeli drone attacks targeting two police posts in the Bureij refugee camp in the central Strip and the al-Mawasi area in Khan Younis in the south on Friday. Medical sources at Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis reported the arrival of four bodies and several wounded individuals following an Israeli military strike on a police checkpoint at the al-Maslakh intersection in al-Mawasi. The sources said that the strike occurred in an area outside the Israeli military’s control, and described the condition of some of the wounded as critical. In the central Gaza Strip, two Palestinians were killed, and others were injured, in a similar Israeli drone strike that targeted a police post at the entrance to the Bureij refugee camp. The attacks overnight into Friday were condemned by Hamas as undermining mediator efforts during a “ceasefire” phase that Israel has violated almost daily since October 10. Reporting from Gaza City, Al Jazeera’s Tareq Abu Azzoum said it was a “bloody night. Israeli forces carried out a series of deadly air strikes, this time primarily focusing on police checkpoints that have been deployed too close to areas where armed militias are operating in the eastern communities of the Gaza Strip, in particular in … Khan Younis and Bureij refugee camp. “Six police members have been killed as a result … But also here, the timing and location are critically reshaping the whole equation between both sides. Israel has made clear that Israel will not be responsible for reorganising the remnants of life in Gaza.

Historic Drop in Support for Israel
Quds news - Feb 27, 2026
{US Poll Shows Historic Drop in Support for Israel as Sympathy for Palestinians Rises
Washington (QNN)- A new public opinion survey reveals a historic decline in American support for the occupation state of Israel. It also shows a major shift in sympathy toward Palestinians inside the United States after decades of strong pro-Israel sentiment. According to the latest poll by Gallup, 41% of Americans now say they sympathize more with Palestinians, compared with 36% who favor Israelis. The narrow gap marks an unprecedented change after years of wide American alignment with the occupation state. Just three years ago, the picture looked very different. At that time, 54% of Americans expressed support for Israelis, while only 31% favored Palestinians. Benedict Vigers, senior global news editor at Gallup, said the new numbers mark a turning point. He noted that this is the first time the two sides have reached near parity. The long-standing gap, he said, “has completely disappeared within a few years.” The survey highlights dramatic changes inside the Democratic Party. About two-thirds of Democrats now say they sympathize more with Palestinians. Support for Israelis within the party has dropped to roughly 20%. This trend contrasts sharply with 2016, when nearly half of Democrats leaned toward Israel. Analysts link the shift to growing backlash within the Democratic base over Israel’s genocide in Gaza. Progressive politicians have described the Israeli response as “disproportionate,” while Palestinian reports say the death toll in the enclave has surpassed 72,000 people, more than half of them women and children. The shift has extended beyond party lines. Among independent voters, 40% now say they sympathize more with Palestinians, compared with 30% who favor Israelis. Gallup says this represents the lowest level of support for Israel ever recorded among independents in its polling. Republicans, however, continue to show backing for Israel. Roughly 70% of Republican respondents expressed support for Israelis, although this figure shows a slight decline from previous years. The Gallup results reveal a clear generational gap. Americans aged 18 to 34 show the strongest shift. About half of young adults say they sympathize more with Palestinians, while only one quarter favor Israelis. This trend surfaced publicly during widespread student anti-genocide protests in 2024. Many university demonstrators demanded an end to US financial and academic support for Israel. For the first time, Americans aged 35 to 54 also lean slightly toward Palestinians. Meanwhile, Americans over 55 still favor Israel, but their support has weakened compared with earlier years.} Source: https://qudsnen.co/post?id=67302&slug=us-poll-shows-historic-drop-in-support-for-israel-as-sympathy-for-palestinians-rises

{US citizens’ support for Israel at historic low over Gaza genocide: Poll
Backing for Israel among US voters hits historic nadir, with 41% now sympathising more with Palestinians, Gallup poll reveals. Support for Israel among United States citizens has dramatically decreased, according to a new Gallup poll, marking an unprecedented shift in decades of overwhelming, unconditional backing for Israel, regardless of which party was in the White House or had control of Congress. In a report published on Friday, the polling agency said 41 percent of Americans now say they sympathise more with Palestinians, while 36 percent remain more favourable to the Israelis. By contrast, before the Hamas-led attack in southern Israel in October 2023 and the ensuing genocidal war waged by Israel in Gaza, 54 percent of Americans sympathised more with Israel and 31 percent with Palestine.

{Pro-Genocide Israeli Journalist Arrested on Suspicion of Child Sexual Assault
Occupied Palestine (QNN)- Pro-genocide Israeli military correspondent Yoav Zitun was reportedly arrested this week on suspicion of involvement in the sexual assault of a 15-year-old boy. Zitun, the military correspondent for Yedioth Ahronoth who reported from inside the war-torn Gaza Strip and was known for strongly supporting Israel’s narrative during the genocidal war, was arrested for involving the sexual assault of a 15-year-old minor. Israel’s Kan 11 has not named him in its report, referring to him only as a “well-known media figure.” However, other reports have since identified him as Yoav Zitun. Zitun was arrested on Thursday after police took testimony from the minor, gathered evidence, and raided the suspect’s home in the settlement of Rishon LeZion. The boy said he was attacked in a trash room near his home. The boy then showed police his phone messages with the “media figure”. According to the boy, they had arranged to meet, and when he arrived, the “media figure” forced him to the ground and sexually assaulted him.} Source: https://qudsnen.co/post?id=67299&slug=pro-genocide-israeli-journalist-arrested-on-suspicion-of-child-sexual-assault


100,000 Palestinians Attend 2nd Friday Prayers of Ramadan
Quds news - Feb 27, 2026
{100,000 Palestinians Attend 2nd Friday Prayers of Ramadan at Jerusalem’s Al-Aqsa Mosque
Occupied Jerusalem (QNN)- Thousands of Palestinian worshipers performed today the second Friday prayers of the holy month of Ramadan at the Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem despite Israel’s strict restrictions. Jerusalem’s Islamic Waqf confirmed that 100,000 worshipers performed the second Friday prayers of the holy month of Ramadan at the mosque today. The Waqf said Palestinians from the occupied West Bank, 1948-occupied Palestine, and occupied Jerusalem succeeded in reaching the holy site and attending the Friday sermon and prayers.
Today is the tenth day of the Muslim holy month and also the second Friday.
Ahead of the prayers, large numbers of well-armed Israeli occupation soldiers deployed in the streets of the occupied city and at the mosque’s gates and in its vicinity. The forces have reportedly placed checkpoints in the streets of occupied Jerusalem to further tighten the restrictions on the entry of Palestinians into the holy site. They also obstructed the movement of the worshipers to the mosque. Israeli occupation forces also prevented thousands of Palestinians from reaching the mosque to attend the prayers, local sources reported. During Ramadan, hundreds of thousands of Palestinians typically travel from the West Bank to Jerusalem to pray at Al-Aqsa. However, Israeli occupation authorities said last Friday they would allow no more than 10,000 Palestinians from the occupied West Bank into one of Islam’s holiest sites for the day. Under the plan, Palestinians from the West Bank must obtain a special daily permit in advance for each prayer. There are about 3.3 million Palestinians living in the occupied West Bank. Only children under the age of 12, men over 55, and women 50 years or older are eligible. At the Qalandiya checkpoint leading to Jerusalem, Israel restricted the entry of worshippers from the occupied West Bank into the mosque. Witnesses said Israeli forces turned back dozens of worshipers at the Qalandia checkpoint. According to reports, in previous years, up to 250,000 worshipers were in that holy site, and now only a fraction of that is expected. Israel has also banned Ramadan decorations and restricted various other traditional ways of celebrating the Islamic holy month. One of the holiest sites in Islam, Al-Aqsa Mosque stands in East Jerusalem's Old City, which has been occupied by Israel since the 1967 Middle East war. Over the past years during Ramadan, Israeli forces have repeatedly raided the holy site while Palestinians were praying, assaulting and arresting worshippers while using excessive force, including stun grenades and tear gas. The raids have caused suffocation injuries among worshipers, along with beatings with batons and rifle butts.} Source: https://qudsnen.co/post?id=67301&slug=100000-palestinians-attend-2nd-friday-prayers-of-ramadan-at-jerusalems-al-aqsa-mosque


Francesca Albanese
Quds news - Feb 27, 2026
{Family of Francesca Albanese Sues Trump Administration Over Sanctions Imposed for Her Pro-Palestine Advocacy
Washington (QNN)- The family of United Nations special rapporteur on the Palestinian Territories, Francesca Albanese, has sued the Trump administration over sanctions it imposed on her for criticism of Israel and the ongoing genocide in Gaza. The case was filed by Albanese’s husband, Massimiliano Cali, a senior economist for the World Bank in Tunisia, on behalf of himself, Albanese and their daughter. Albanese and her husband are Italian citizens, but their daughter is a US citizen. The civil complaint was filed in the US District Court for the District of Columbia, arguing that the Trump administration breached Albanese’s First, Fourth and Fifth Amendment rights, unreasonably seized her property without due process, and violated sanctions laws. The complaint asked the court to call the sanctions unconstitutional. “Francesca’s expression of her views about the facts as she has found them in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and about the work of the ICC is core First Amendment activity,” the lawsuit says. “At its heart, this case concerns whether Defendants can sanction a person - ruining their life and the lives of their loved ones, including their citizen daughter - because Defendants disagree with their recommendations or fear their persuasiveness,” the filing added. In July, Albanese was sanctioned by the US over her work investigating Israeli genocide in Gaza, where over 72,000 Palestinians have been killed in the war on the enclave and entrie areas have been wiped out. The sanctions effectively barred her from travelling to the US and froze her assets there. The administration claimed that she is “unfit” for her role and accused her of “biased and malicious activities” against the US and its ally, Israel. It also highlighted her work with the International Criminal Court (ICC), which, after considering the recommendations of Albanese and other experts, issued an arrest warrant against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes in Gaza. The filing says the Trump administration’s sanctions have had a negative impact on Albanese, who not only has a US citizen daughter but also assets in the country, including a house in Washington, DC. On Thursday, Albanese told The New York Times that she had experienced “enormous hardship”, especially because of her links to the US and concerns that her family could be penalised for maintaining ties with her. “There is a criminalization of my motherhood and the family bonds I have.” But Albanese has indicated that she remains committed to her work regardless of the disruptions to her life. “My daughter is American. I’ve been living in the US, and I have some assets there. So of course, it’s going to harm me,” Albanese said after the sanctions announcement. “What can I do? I did everything I did in good faith, and knowing that, my commitment to justice is more important than personal interests.” As part of her mandate, Albanese has issued three reports since October 2023, labelling Israel's war on Gaza as a genocide and denouncing the global economic and political systems that have supported Israel's war. The findings of her latest report issued in October, Gaza Genocide: A Collective Crime, accused 63 states of enabling Israeli breaches of international law. She said that despite overwhelming evidence of genocide and mass atrocities in Gaza and the occupied West Bank, Europe's most powerful states, including Italy, Germany and France, continue to provide diplomatic, military and political cover for Israel. Israel had, she said, left Gaza “strangled, starved, shattered”. Her report calls out the multilateral system for “decades of moral and political failure” in a colonial world order sustained by a global system of complicity”. Since returning for a second term, Trump has used sanctions as penalties for several critics of Israeli and US actions. Last June, the Trump administration sanctioned four ICC judges for taking “illegitimate and baseless actions” against the US and Israel. Then, in August, two more ICC judges, plus two prosecutors, were also slapped with sanctions. As recently as December, another pair of ICC judges were added to the list for their involvement in the investigation of alleged Israeli war crimes in Gaza. Since 2022, Albanese, a legal scholar, has served as the special rapporteur for the West Bank and Gaza, where she monitors human rights abuses against Palestinians. The UN Human Rights Council selected her for the position.} Source: https://qudsnen.co/post?id=67298&slug=family-of-francesca-albanese-sues-trump-administration-over-sanctions-imposed-for-her-pro-palestine-advocacy


Videoscreen grab: Charlotte Head
Al Jazeera - Feb 27, 2026 By Anealla Safdar
{‘I was so isolated’: Pro-Palestine activist attempted suicide in UK prison
Recently bailed Palestine Action-linked activist Charlotte Head, 29, spent 18 months in pre-trial detention.
Warning: This story contains details about suicide that some readers may find disturbing. If you or a loved one is experiencing suicidal thoughts, help and support are available.
London, United Kingdom – Before Charlotte Head was arrested, she was a charity worker supporting victims of domestic violence. She had also volunteered at refugee camps in Calais. “Such a terrorist,” she says, tongue in cheek, speaking to Al Jazeera in London. Head, 29, is part of the so-called “Filton 24”, two dozen pro-Palestine activists alleged to have raided the Bristol branch of Elbit Systems UK, a subsidiary of Israel’s largest weapons manufacturer, in August 2024.
Less than a year later, after other activists broke into an airbase in Oxfordshire and allegedly spray-painted two Voyager refuelling and transport planes, the UK proscribed Palestine Action, the group which claimed responsibility for both incidents, as a “terrorist” organisation. “We were some of the first activists in a very long time to be treated as terrorists,” Head said. “That had a massive impact on our treatment inside the carceral system.” She said family and friends encountered overly burdensome administrative difficulties when trying to arrange prison visits while the books she wanted to read were screened, claims that are consistent with the accounts of other Palestine Action-linked activists and their families, but allegations the Ministry of Justice has previously denied.
Head, whose barrister in court likened her to a suffragette, was released three weeks ago on bail. Convicted of no crime, she had served 18 months in prison, well beyond the UK’s usual six-month pre-trial detention limit.
‘I was so depressed and so isolated’
After she was released, Head’s friend asked what she wanted to eat as one of her first meals. “I sat there completely overwhelmed, so she just said, ‘Right, pesto pasta’, and I swear nothing has ever tasted that good.” While getting used to her freedom, living in a seaside town and continuing her activism – Al Jazeera interviewed Head at the launch of a new database tracking the repression of pro-Palestine voices – she remembers her lowest points in jail. During her detention, she was moved from Bronzefield prison in southern England to Foston Hall, a facility nearly 250km (155 miles) north, far further from her loved ones. In August 2025, about a year after she was arrested, she said she attempted to take her own life at Foston Hall. “I was so depressed and so isolated and was so aware that the public was just being told these lies about us, by the police, by the right-wing press, by the state itself – I had no power to counter that narrative. “I tried to take my own life … purely out of powerlessness of being used as a political play piece and having very little recourse to [my] own agency.”
She said she was taken to an emergency department, “where I was handcuffed to a prison officer the whole time”. After blood tests, she was returned to prison from hospital the following day. The prison system’s conditions need “massive” reform, she said. In 2025, 29 people died in the UK’s prisons in circumstances officially described as “self-inflicted”, while there were about 75,000 incidents of self-harm. The hunger striking activists had also called for improved conditions, demanding an end to what they called censorship in prison, accusing authorities of withholding mail, calls and books. Founded in 2020, Palestine Action’s stated objective has been to counter Israeli war crimes – and what it says is British complicity in them – by targeting weapons manufacturers and associated companies. Its main target is Elbit Systems, which has several UK sites. The Israeli firm produces the drones that are used with deadly effect in Israel’s genocidal war against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, but the company’s UK subsidiary denies that it supplies the Israeli military. All Palestine Action-linked activists have denied the charges against them. Head is said to have driven a van into the Bristol site, using it as a “battering ram” to get inside the factory. “It’s so painful to see that so little has changed in Palestine, that the genocide has continued unabated,” she said. “It’s horrifying, but it confirms what we’ve known all along, that state actors like Israel, the US and the UK were never going to abide by international law and that we must continue to voice our opposition and try to bring about true justice for Palestine.”
New protests against Elbit Systems UK
In recent weeks, in a dizzying turn of events, the High Court ruled that the Palestine Action ban was unlawful and all “Filton24” defendants have been acquitted of aggravated burglary. Twenty-three of the 24 were bailed in two rounds, including a group that participated in a life-threatening hunger strike. Only one, Samuel Corner, remains in jail. He faces an additional charge of causing grievous bodily harm to a police officer. The jury reached partial or no verdicts on the counts of criminal damage and violent disorder, so Head and other activists now face a retrial. On the Palestine Action ban, Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood has been granted permission to appeal the High Court ruling. Meanwhile, Elbit Systems UK continues to be targeted. On Thursday, activists affiliated with a group called People Against Genocide claimed to have blocked the Elbit UK Systems site in Bristol by “locking on”, a protest tactic that involves attaching oneself to an object. “The arms firm claim that the Filton facility is a research, development, and manufacturing hub, but quadcopter drones, of the exact type used to kill civilians in Gaza, have previously been discovered here, ready to be shipped to the Israeli military,” they said. Avon and Somerset Police told Al Jazeera that three people “causing disruption” had been arrested for offences relating to “locking on, contrary to the Public Order Act 2003”. At the time of publishing, Elbit Systems UK and the Ministry of Justice had not responded to Al Jazeera’s request for comment.} Video-Source: https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/2/27/i-was-so-isolated-pro-palestine-activist-attempted-suicide-in-uk-prison


attacks on police sites
Al Jazeera - Feb 27, 2026
{Israeli attacks on police sites kill six in southern, central Gaza
Hamas says latest attacks show Israel’s ‘blatant disregard for the efforts of mediators, and its complete disregard for the Peace Council and its role’. At least six Palestinians have been killed in Israeli drone attacks targeting two police posts in the Bureij refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip and the al-Mawasi area in Khan Younis in the south, as Israel presses on with its more than two-year genocidal war on the devastated enclave. The attacks overnight into Friday were condemned by Hamas as undermining mediator efforts during a “ceasefire” phase that Israel has violated almost daily since October 10. Medical sources at Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis reported the arrival of four bodies and several wounded individuals following an Israeli military strike on a police checkpoint at the al-Maslakh intersection in al-Mawasi. The sources said that the strike occurred in an area outside the Israeli military’s control, and described the condition of some of the wounded as critical. In the central Gaza Strip, two Palestinians were killed and others were injured in a similar Israeli drone strike that targeted a police post at the entrance to the Bureij refugee camp. Hamas spokesperson Hazem Qassem said that the rising number of deaths as a result of the ongoing Israeli bombardment across the Gaza Strip reflects “the Zionist occupation’s blatant disregard for the efforts of mediators, and its complete disregard for the Peace Council and its role”. Qassem added, in a statement, that Israel is continuing its war of extermination against the Palestinian people, despite some changes to form and method, indicating that “the talk of the guarantor states about stopping the war lacks any real substance on the ground”. Reporting from Gaza City, Al Jazeera’s Tareq Abu Azzoum said, “It has been a bloody night. Israeli forces carried out a series of deadly air strikes, this time primarily focusing on police checkpoints that have been deployed too close to areas where armed militias are operating in the eastern communities of the Gaza Strip, in particular in … Khan Younis and Bureij refugee camp. “Six police members have been killed as a result … But also here, the timing and location are critically reshaping the whole equation between both sides. Israel has made clear that Israel will not be responsible for reorganising the remnants of life in Gaza. That’s why we can see that any kind of restoration of previous services, including police… will be thwarted,” he added. The Gaza Crossings and Borders Authority on Friday reported that 50 Palestinians travelled through the Rafah crossing into Egypt on Thursday including 13 patients and 37 companions., while 41 citizens returned to to Gaza. There has been a trickle of human movement in either direction since Israel partially opened the crossing. Thousands of Palestinians require urgent medical attention outside of the devastated enclave but Israel is severely restricting their exit. The authority also reported 286 trucks entered Gaza Thursday, including 174 commercial trucks and 112 carrying aid. That’s far below the 600 aid truck required daily to meet the needs of a population still suffering hunger, and a painful Ramadan, due to Israel’s blockade.

Aid organisations facing expulsion deadline
Meanwhile, Israel has ordered 37 aid groups to halt operations in the occupied territory unless they hand over personal details about Palestinian staff by this Sunday, March 1 – a move described as having potentially devastating consequences for Palestinians. The organisations warn that complying could put employees at risk, compromise humanitarian neutrality and violate European data protection rules. Seventeen international NGOs, including Doctors Without Borders, Oxfam, the Norwegian Refugee Council, and CARE International, have challenged the order in Israel’s Supreme Court, saying they could be forced to stop operations. Abu Azzoum said, “This could mark a major turning point for the humanitarian response system in Gaza.” Aid groups may be forced to suspend operations entirely if the order stands, he added. Oxfam International said on Tuesday that the forced closure of aid operations in Gaza and the rest of the occupied Palestinian territory could begin as early as Saturday. “The effect would be immediate, extending well beyond individual organisations to the wider humanitarian system,” Oxfam warned. “In Gaza, families remain dependent on external assistance amid continuing restrictions on aid entry and renewed strikes in densely populated areas,” it said in a statement. “In the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, military incursions, demolitions, displacement, settlement expansion and settler violence are driving rising humanitarian needs,” it added. Pressure from Israel on international humanitarian groups has been growing for years and escalated sharply after October 7, 2023.} Video-Source: https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/2/27/israeli-attacks-on-police-sites-kill-five-in-southern-central-gaza

But as the hasty deployment approaches, some Indonesians are questioning what role their armed forces will play in the mission amid Israel’s genocidal war on the Palestinian territory. Indonesia is a seasoned participant in United Nations-led peacekeeping missions, but critics fear that without oversight by the UN, Indonesian forces could be used as “pawns” by the US – Israel’s foremost ally – to control Palestinians in Gaza and formalise the occupation of the enclave. “We are afraid that Indonesia will be used as the buffer to control the Palestinians,” Shofwan Al Banna Choiruzzad, an associate professor at the University of Indonesia, told Al Jazeera. “Indonesia has built a reputation in Palestine as one of the most active partners on the ground. It would be very painful for both Palestinians and Indonesians if they see the Indonesian army becoming an instrument of the occupation,” Shofwan said. “The worry is that Indonesia will only be a shock absorber,” he said. “Indonesia will only be an actor which is used to establish legitimacy [for Israel’s occupation], and worse.”....} More at Video-Source: https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/2/27/solidarity-with-palestinians-questioned-as-indonesian-troops-set-for-gaza

{In Gaza, when money is scarce, every choice counts: Bank, cash, or credit?
Palestinians in the devastated enclave struggle to manage their daily lives amid shortage of cash caused by war.
Gaza City – Amid the buzz of customers in the Remal neighbourhood in Gaza City, Samar Abu Harbied stops at a small, makeshift roadside stall to buy groceries to prepare an Iftar meal for her family, to break their fast during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. With no cash in her purse, the 45-year-old housewife asks the grocer if she could put the bill on credit, until her husband or son could wire the money to him. “I have not touched a paper note for months. I don’t even have money to pay for a taxi. Now we walk a lot, for long distances,” Abu Harbied said. Najlaa Sukkar, 48, was trying to catch her breath at the same stall, which is run by her son Abdallah, after a failed journey on foot to see a doctor for a post-surgery check-up and to buy medication. Najlaa said she did not have enough money to pay the 30 shekel (US$9.5) check-up fees, and the only banknote she had, a 20-shekel bill, was so worn out that the pharmacist turned it down. “I returned without receiving medical care,” she told Al Jazeera. “At the pharmacy, they didn’t accept the banknotes as they were frayed. The taxi driver didn’t accept a banknote, only small change, which I don’t have. It is very difficult to get by. What a mess, we don’t know what to do!” Palestinians in the Gaza Strip are struggling to conduct their daily lives amid a severe cash flow problem imposed by Israel immediately after it embarked on its genocidal war on Gaza in October 2023. A US-brokered ceasefire that went into effect in October has brought little reprieve to Palestinians, who are still using worn-out currency they had from before the war, or must rely on a new system of electronic payments conducted through smart telephones amid limited internet coverage. Palestinians in Gaza use the Israeli currency, the shekel, in their daily transactions, and depend on Israel to supply banks with new banknotes and coins.
Electronic payments
Palestinians were forced to turn to a digital payment system as a way to get around a severe shortage of Israeli shekel banknotes, a problem that has been exacerbated by the destruction of an estimated 90 percent of bank branches and cash machines. The Palestinian Monetary Authority, working with internet service providers, has pushed for mobile-based electronic payments, including PalPay and Jawwal Pay, to help Palestinians overcome the liquidity problem. Abu Harbeid said her son switched to electronic payments after he faced many problems using the 50 shekels per shift he was receiving while working as a night guard. “My son, Shady, was receiving his daily wage in cash, which was worn and torn. We could hardly break it into smaller change or buy anything, as sellers don’t accept overused paper bills,” she told Al Jazeera. “Moreover, the seller doesn’t accept it unless I spend it all, as they don’t have change. Now, as he is paid into his bank account, we buy everything through bank apps,” she added. But digital payments have added another layer of hardship to a large segment of the population. Most Palestinians still do not receive bank-transferred salaries, many lack access to smartphones, and those who have phones struggle to keep them charged in an area where electricity services are in severe crisis. To add to that, there is still the problem of finding a good internet connection for the transfer process. Abu Harbeid said a proper trip to the market requires her to have her husband or son with her to pay for goods. But neither can leave work to join her. “I prefer cash in my hand; I could buy anything on the go,” Abu Harbied said.
Not only a liquidity shortage issue
Analysts say Gaza’s current economic reality started as a liquidity crisis, but has become an issue of transition from a regulated financial system to a fragmented survival economy shaped by scarcity, informality, and political constraints. “However, as the months passed, the crisis evolved into something far more structural,” Ahmed Abu Qamar, member of the board of directors of the Palestinian Economists Association, told Al Jazeera. “The black market now plays a dominant role in determining liquidity conditions. A small group of traders effectively manages cash circulation through high-commission cashing operations.” He said that when money itself becomes a traded commodity, it signals severe distortion in the monetary system. “Cash, like any commodity, becomes subject to supply and demand dynamics. When it becomes scarce, its value increases beyond its nominal worth. From an economic perspective, this represents a structural disruption of the monetary system. “The formal banking sector and the Palestinian Monetary Authority were sidelined. What we are seeing is the neutralisation of the formal monetary system,” he said. Abu Qamar said the deeper issue was confidence – not just in cash, but in the financial system as a whole. “Cash is inherently difficult to track, whereas electronic payments are traceable and can be frozen or restricted. Implementing such a transition abruptly produces severe economic and social distortions,” he warned. “Widespread selling on credit is not a sign of market stability – it is an indicator of declining incomes and weakened purchasing power. When debt expands rapidly without a parallel increase in income, the result is social fragmentation. Approximately 95 percent of households in Gaza depend on aid,” he added.
Profiteering from Gaza’s woes
The war has paved the way for middlemen to cash in illegally on the financial woes of Gaza, residents said. Sukkar said that when her husband or sons needed cash, they were often forced to deal with brokers who charge a hefty commission that could reach 50 percent. “We lose our money to them for nothing; they steal from us under our full consent,” she said. Many residents, like Abu Harbeid, also do not trust bank transfers, saying they prefer physical cash in hand. “I ask my sons, where does that money in the account appear?” said Sukkar. “Who holds our money in their hands? I used to see money and count it, the banknotes and the change. On some days, when there are technical problems with the bank applications, we get nervous about the possibility of losing the money in their accounts,” she added. Abdallah Sukkar, whose family ran a well-known family store in the Shujayea area in eastern Gaza before the war, said families who receive direct deposit salaries often buy with bank transfers. “But I don’t like this method; I prefer cash,” he said. He said he accepts all banknotes, whether new or worn-out ones, and allows people to buy on credit, but admitted that all of that affects his ability to make improvements to the roadside stall he now runs in place of his family’s old business. He also complained of unpaid debts, adding that debts had soared by more than 500 percent during the war, while his profits barely reach 2 percent. He said he had given out 20,000 shekels’ worth of goods to new customers, “all of [whom] have become customers during the war”. “People don’t have money; I can’t turn them away when they come to buy food on credit. It’s already catastrophic in Gaza,” he said.
“From the beginning of Ramadan till now, I haven’t had banknotes and change, which affects the sales. I don’t have small change to give to people who have cash, so they turn to other stalls or shops. “Yesterday, when the bank application stopped, we were terrified that we might lose our money in the bank,” he said.} Video-Source: https://www.aljazeera.com/economy/2026/2/27/when-money-is-scarce-every-choice-counts-bank-cash-or-credit
