There is no KFC branch in the Palestinian Authority. Therefore, if you want to eat Kentucky Fried Chicken, you have no choice but to import it from neighboring Egypt via an underground tunnel. This underground tunnel is mainly used for smuggling weapons. The British media

The media reported that if you request delivery of KFC products from the Gaza Strip, the price will be more than double the normal price. A company called Al-Yamama is said to have delivered a family pack purchased in Egypt for £ 7.50 (about ¥ 1,170 in Japanese yen) to the Gaza Strip for £ 18 (about ¥ 2,800 in Japanese yen). The time from order to delivery is 3 hours. If Hamas's guards stop him on the way, it will take longer.
Still, Palestinians order KFC merchandise. One student explains why:
"Kentucky is delicious, even if it's cold."
