Hamas Extends Ban on Released Prisoners Holding Sensitive Posts

Summarized from i24NEWS English by baba

CenterNeutral tone

English · Sole source

Hamas has extended a ban preventing leaders and members released from Israeli prisons from holding sensitive positions within the organization. The restrictions, initially for 18 months, have been renewed and cover political, military, security, media, and social roles. Some individuals were allegedly recruited by Israel after receiving exemptions, providing intelligence that led to airstrikes. Affected members fear indefinite sidelining and loss of salaries, while Hamas is concerned about potential Israeli targeting of released prisoners.
