The Saudi newspaper Asharq Al-Awsat reports that Hamas is facing a severe financial crisis amid ongoing fighting with Israel across Gaza.

Sources within the terror group revealed that Hamas is struggling to pay salaries — not only to government employees, but also to members of its military wing and staff in other affiliated bodies at all levels.

The sources added that the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas' military wing, have not paid salaries to terrorists for approximately three months and are facing serious financial difficulties in acquiring essential equipment...

Go on strike. Refuse to commit murder or blow anything up until you get paid.

I hope they all starve to death slowly and in agonizing pain.

Every last one.

This is a lie. They have big piles of money in the headquarters, they would just rather keep it than pay the fighters. I think the only way the front line troops will get paid is by attacking the HQ and killing anyone who won’t bring out the bags of cash they’re hiding. Do it now! (Do you think they’ll buy that?)

Hamas needs to contact the DemocRATs, who are always willing to donate their illegal funds to the worst entity extant at the moment.

“The IDF has deployed all regular infantry and armored brigades into Gaza as part of a dramatic expansion of the fighting, according to a report by Kan News.”

All? Is that hyperbole? All including paratroopers!

No need to pay dead people, although I’m sure the PA in Ramallah will reward widows and orphans.

Bad time for Iran to storm the beaches of Tel Aviv. What requires such a huge investment of personnel in Gaza?

If Hamas isn’t paying them, it means Iran isn’t sending them any money. Is Iran nearly finished?

No problem, they’ll just pillage the peasants they are hiding among.
Make a few bucks selling food they stole from aid convoys.
I know it’s more fun to rape Jewish girls, but they’ll make do with locals.

I think Hamas was more a Globalist creation than Iranian - Hezbollah was Iran’s proxy in the region.

First thing you learn as a would-be despot, you gotta pay your mercs. Nicky Machiavelli said so; the Emperor Chuckie V didn’t and they sacked Rome. These guys will end up working for Mossad, or at least that’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

have not paid salaries to terrorists for approximately three months

What happened about 3 month ago?
It cannot be the ongoing war because that has been going on for over 1 1/2 years.

Maybe Hamas needs to raise their terrorists wages to 20 dollars an hour...

I think D.O.G.E stopped those payments, too, right?

The money didn’t get laundered. Qatar is getting chummy with Trump, and part of the deal might have been to cut off all these terror groups. Give Arabs credit. They don’t bet on a losing horse.
