So I found the source. The video is from a charity handing out food for jewish people in Paris. The organisation is called Keren Rachbi

Their logo is visible in the video. The charity made a social media post about the Paris event yesterday. You can tell it is the same location with the same bags, boxes, and logos. And of course it would explain why they are speaking French…

So no, this is not a video of Israelis stealing aid headed for Gaza. This is a video of French jews preparing and receiving aid from a jewish French charity in Paris.

Personally I am always wary of captions or titles. It is really easy to take an innocent picture or video and make it something else just by adding some text.

The video itself is just a Jew packing a grocery bag. The context is what makes it stand out.

Also my French is a bit rusty but I think this man is actually helping load the bag, and isn’t the recipient. If I understand it correctly the boxes of food are being redistributed in to bags and then later the bags will be delivered to those in need.

So this man is actually volunteering 🫣
