Adulterated olive oil is inundating Palestinian markets amid the peak olive harvest season, the Ma'an news agency reported. The surge in fake products threatens consumer health and undermines Palestinian households relying on authentic local oil for cooking and storage.
Authorities have not yet announced measures to combat the counterfeit supply chain or protect consumers from contaminated products entering distribution networks during the critical harvest period.
