Hamas and Clan Violence in Gaza
Despite the recent ceasefire between Hamas and Israel, Gaza remains plagued by violence. Clashes between Hamas and various clans have resulted in the deaths of over two dozen Palestinians.
Hamas has also been reported to have executed blindfolded men in a public square, highlighting the intense struggle for control.
Role of Clans in Gaza
Familial clans have been a part of Palestinian society for centuries and have become increasingly influential in Palestinian politics. These clans are essentially collections of family groups in different parts of Gaza.
- The Dughmush clan, headed by Mumtaz Dughmush, is one of the largest and most well-armed in Gaza City.
- The al-Majayda clan holds significant influence in part of Khan Younis.
These clans pose a notable threat to Hamas' control in the region, prompting the organization to target them, as seen in the immediate action taken against the Dughmush clan after the ceasefire.
