This article is literally impossible, because Hamas will not allow the payment of interest, which is Haram in Islam.

Therefore, these are not loans.

They are potentially repayable grants.

What could possibly go wrong?

Well, this is in the West Bank not Gaza, but when they take over there, they could well decide the interest isn't owed, in the name of Allah. I wouldn't bet on collecting the principal either.
