הבוץ העזתי: החורף עושה שמות ברצועה, אבל חמאס רק מתחזק

הערכה

Winter flooding, sewage overflows, and mudslides are devastating Gaza's tent cities, but Hamas is using the humanitarian crisis to strengthen its political position. The group is running a global campaign that exploits the suffering while it consolidates control. A year of relative diplomatic quiet may be ending as the U.S. shows renewed interest in Gaza. The real worry is that any new governing body in the strip will be a front for Hamas, replicating Hezbollah's model in Lebanon.
