"Gaza's Rafah: Protests, Vigilantes, and Rising Costs"
TL;DR Summary
In the absence of Palestinian policemen in Rafah due to the ongoing war, a group of masked and armed vigilantes has taken it upon themselves to enforce fair prices at the markets, aiming to prevent traders from profiteering off the more than a million displaced Palestinians seeking shelter from Israel's campaign. The vigilantes, known as "The Committee of Public Protection," have been patrolling the streets and markets to monitor prices and punish those exploiting the people's needs, while some residents express concerns and hope for the return of the real police force once the war ends.
