Supply police in Rafah, southern Gaza, confiscated 327 kilograms of foodstuffs displaying signs of spoilage during inspection sweeps of markets and commercial shops, Shehab Wire reported. The operation was conducted jointly with the Ministry of Economy as part of regulatory efforts to protect consumers from contaminated goods entering the retail supply chain.
Officials targeted a range of retail establishments across the city in their oversight rounds. The seizure underscores ongoing concerns about food safety in markets throughout Gaza's southern regions, where economic pressures have intensified scrutiny of vendor compliance with health and storage standards.
