Gaza’s first female gas station attendant challenges ‘traditions’

Salma al-Najjar, a petrol station attendant in the Gaza Strip, sees her part-time job in larger terms than the traditional act of filling a customer’s tank.

The 15-year-old trailblazer is the first female to work at a gas station in the Palestinian territory, which has been controlled by the Islamist group Hamas since 2007.

Sporting an orange and black vest and poised for her next vehicle, Najjar said she wanted to “support Palestinian women and show they can do whatever they want, despite the criticism they face.”

When the boss of a petrol station in Khan Yunis in southern Gaza informed her she had been hired, Najjar said she was both surprised and happy.

“Why not become the first woman to do this job and challenge traditions in our conversative society,” she said, adding that she was encouraged by her family.

It’s 2020 but for the first time, a Palestinian girl is allowed to pump gas.

These are the people that feminists, Progressives, and other Leftists defend while screaming that America is “The Handmaids Tale.”
