According to several sources, it is stated that Medjool dates are recognized as one of the largest types of dates in the world. In addition to their large size, Medjool dates are also famous for their sweet taste and soft texture.

Therefore, it is not surprising that dates are always a favorite, especially during the fasting month. Variations in the location of date cultivation can affect the texture and sweetness of dates. Medjool dates are a good source of fiber, high in antioxidants, rich in vitamins and important minerals such as potassium, copper, magnesium, vitamin B6, niacin, calcium, iron, and vitamin K.

The sweet taste possessed by Medjool dates is almost identical to the taste of caramel. In terms of physical appearance, Medjool dates have a longer shape, dark brown color, and textured skin. Often, Medjool dates are dubbed as the "king of dates" or the king of dates because the fruit it produces has premium quality.

One method to support Palestine in the midst of facing Israeli attacks is by supporting their economy through purchasing products from Palestine.

As reported from the official website of the Ministry of Trade of the Republic of Indonesia on Tuesday, November 7, 2023, the Indonesian government has abolished import duties for products from Palestine since 2019. This step is stated in the Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) No. 126/PMK.010/2018 which establishes import duty tariff policies to facilitate trade for certain products originating from the Palestinian territory.

"Products from Palestine Receive Special Exemption from Import Duties."

"In 2019, Minister of Trade Enggartiasto Lukita confirmed that Indonesia has lifted import duties for dates and olive oil products originating from Palestine. Both products still have limited production levels in Indonesia, so this tariff elimination policy is implemented by the government."

In addition, Palestinian Dates at the WICIndonesia Charity Bazaar offer assistance in the form of capacity building for Human Resources (HR) in the process of preparing for Palestinian independence. President Jokowi (Joko Widodo) announced in 2022 that he would provide special facilities that allow the shipment of dates and olives from Palestine to Indonesia without import duties. As evidence of Indonesia's support for Palestine, similar facilities will also be provided for other products originating from Palestine.
