Hamas fund crisis: Fighters go unpaid as cash network implodes under Israeli siege

Hamas faces a severe cash shortage in Gaza due to tightened Israeli restrictions and military actions, crippling its ability to pay fighters and employees. Israeli forces have targeted key financial operatives, disrupting fund distribution, while restrictions on aid and currency further strain Gaza's economy. This financial crisis undermines Hamas's recruitment efforts and control, exacerbating hardships for Gazan civilians already struggling with war and basic needs.
