‘No to terror, yes to peace’: New anti-Hamas protest breaks out in northern Gaza
[IsraelTimes] Clips shared online show hundreds demonstrating in Beit Lahiya, chanting ‘Hamas out!’ ‘We want to live in freedom!’; clan leaders said to take part, as Hamas supporters thrown out

Hundreds of residents of Beit Lahiya, in the northern Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
Strip, erupted into the streets on Wednesday to protest Hamas
..always the voice of sweet reason...
rule, the first such demonstrations since the end of last month.
Videos shared on social media showed the protests. Footage also showed Hamas supporters — carrying signs saying, "Beit Lahiya is with the resistance," a term referring to the terror organizations in the Strip — being thrown out by protesters.

Since late March, sporadic protests against the terror group, which has been the de facto government of Gaza for almost two decades, have taken place in the Strip, despite reports of Hamas attempting to detain and harm demonstrators, and counter to claims by the terror group that the protests are merely anti-war. Many of the protests have occurred in Beit Lahiya.

In clips shared on social media, participants could be seen holding signs reading "Stop the aggression," "We want to live in freedom," and chanting, "No to terror, yes to peace," and "Hamas out!"

Participants were also seen waving flags, including the flag of Egypt — presumably in support of Cairo’s mediation of hostage-ceasefire talks between Israel and Hamas — and, in the hands of children, "We want to learn."

Clan leaders were reportedly also seen at the protest. Statements by some clan leaders were published last month defending and even supporting the protests.

Gaza has dozens of powerful families that function as well-organized clans and derive their power from controlling businesses, commanding the loyalty of hundreds or thousands of relatives. Each family has a leader, known as a mukhtar, or chieftain.

Members of the Abu Samra clan of Deir al-Balah were filmed last month killing an alleged Hamas member in the street.

Prior to last month, the last documented protest in the Strip against Hamas took place in January 2024, when Paleostinians in Deir al-Balah and Khan Younis called for an end to the war, the end of the terror group’s rule over Gaza and the release of the Israeli hostages.

Before the war, anti-Hamas protests were also relatively rare events, and were often suppressed violent mostly peacefully by the terror group.
