Gaza’s second week of protests demands ‘Hamas out’ as grip weakens
Mass protests against Hamas’s rule in Gaza have entered their second week, with thousands rallying in northern areas like Beit Lahia, chanting for the terror group to step down amid growing frustration over the war and Israel’s aid cutoff. While some Gazans demand an end to the conflict without fully rejecting Hamas’s ideology, recent clan-led revenge killings and a brutal crackdown signal the group’s weakening control after 18 years.
