Hamas Arrests Gaza Comedian Who Protested Economic Hardship
(Jerusalem Post) Khaled Abu Toameh - Hamas security forces have arrested Palestinian comedian Hussam Khalaf, known for his criticism of Hamas and Qatar, sources in Gaza confirmed on Wednesday. Khalaf is known for criticizing the political and economic conditions in Hamas-ruled Gaza through songs inspired by famous Egyptian singers. Sources said the comedian is suspected of "misusing technology" - a reference to his posts on social media - and of taking part in last month's anti-Hamas protests.
