Report: Hamas Facing Financial Crisis
(Ynet News) Noa Lutski - Hamas is facing a financial crisis, with government employees in Gaza receiving just 900 shekels ($250) a month for the past four months, according to a report in Asharq Al-Awsat on Saturday. Sources within Hamas said the Qassam Brigades have not paid fighters for three months and are facing acute shortages of military supplies. Families of deceased and wounded Hamas members are also no longer receiving consistent support. While Hamas's military command structure continues to function, Hamas is having difficulty recruiting fighters without payment.
