‘It has lost most of its assets and its command-and-control structure’

As the conflict between Israel and Hamas continues, a new report indicates Islamic terrorists in Hamas have gone without pay for close to three months as they face severe financial pressure after Israel stopped humanitarian aid from entering Gaza in March.
The Jerusalem Post quotes a report by the London-based Saudi Asharq al Awsat newspaper, which indicates the military wing of Hamas, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, “has struggled not only to pay its fighters but also to buy military equipment.”
“Palestinian Authority employees affiliated with Hamas have also been impacted, getting paid only 900 shekels a month,” the report added.
