Dissolvement of Gaza gov't done to 'prevent Israel from making excuses,' Hamas says
“Today, we are putting the ball in the mediators' court so that they will pressure all sides to bring the national committee into the Strip,” a Hamas spokesperson said
Assessment
Hamas has dissolved the Gaza government, framing the move as a preemptive step to remove Israeli justifications for military or political action. By calling on mediators to pressure all sides into allowing a national committee into the Strip, Hamas is shifting responsibility for Gaza's governance onto external actors. The key question is whether mediators can broker a new administrative arrangement or whether this dissolves internal accountability without changing the ground reality.
