Hundreds join protest against Hamas in northern Gaza

Hundreds of Palestinians have joined protests in northern Gaza, shouting anti-Hamas slogans and calling for an end to the war with Israel, in what has been described as the largest protest against the militant group inside the territory since the 7 October attacks.

Videos and photos shared on social media late on Tuesday showed hundreds of people, mostly men, chanting “Hamas out” and “Hamas terrorists” in Beit Lahiya, where the crowd had gathered a week after the Israeli army resumed its intense bombing of Gaza after nearly two months of a truce.

The protests took place in front of the Indonesia hospital in the northern part of the Gaza Strip.

Some protesters were seen carrying banners emblazoned with slogans including “Stop the war” and “We want to live in peace”.
