Israel army loots $25 million in money, gold artifacts from Gazans
The Israeli army has looted nearly $25 million worth of money and gold artifacts from the Palestinians’ houses across the Gaza Strip amid the ravages of a three-month war, according to a report by Gaza Media Office.
Gaza government’s media office reported on Saturday that dozens of testimonies by the residents of Gaza have been provided on the theft of money, gold, and antiquates worth 90 million shekels ($24.5 million) by the Israeli army since October 7.
“Theft operations occurred in various ways, the first of which was at the checkpoints, such as Salah al-Din Street, where they stole from the displaced people who had moved from the northern Gaza Strip to the south, their bags containing their valuable possessions such as money, gold, and artifacts,” the report said.
The report also revealed that Israeli forces stole from houses whose residents were asked to evacuate, most happened in the town of Beit Lahia in northern Gaza.
They “took souvenir photos and video clips for this crime, some of which were posted on their social media accounts,” it added.
The report also said that the Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronot, documented the crime, describing it as a “systematic theft of the money of the Gazans.”
So far, there has been no comment from Israeli authorities on the accusations.
In a report last month, Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor revealed that Israeli forces are systematically looting Palestinians’ homes across the besieged territory, stealing their property in addition to killing thousands of civilians in the Gaza Strip.
It added that Israeli soldiers participate in and witness the deliberate theft of the assets and money of Palestinian civilians, including laptop computers, gold, and large quantities of cash.
Since the start of its military aggression, the Zionist regime has killed at least 22,722 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injured 58,166 others.
