Former Hamas-Government Employees Strike

Lesson Brief An Nahar
On January 1, An Nahar reported that former employees of the Hamas-led government in Gaza went on strike and shut down local government institutions amid an ongoing controversy over their place in the new consensus government. Over the summer, the Palestinian Authority and Hamas entered an agreement to form a consensus government. A debate has since raged at who is to hold the Strip's limited government jobs, members of the Palestinian Authority who were ousted when Hamas took control of Gaza, or government employees under the purportedly dissolved Hamas-led government.
