The general criticism of Nader Hamas, with violent dispersed protests, opponents imprisoned, tortured and killed – this protest took place in Beit Lahia in northern Gaza on March 26

“Outside!”

Voice in Telegram Egypt Video. High. Sometimes music.

And the message is unambiguous.

“Every enthusiasm, outside!”

In the streets of Gaza, More and more Palestinians express the open challenge Against the armed group that ruled the tape for nearly 20 years.

Many are responsible for the sinking of small poor lands in the worst crisis that the Palestinians have faced for more than 70 years.

“The delivery of the message”, the chanting of another crowd, as it is increasing in the destroyed streets of Gaza: “Hamas is garbage.”

“The world is deceived by the situation in the Gaza Strip,” says Momn and Natur, a lawyer in Gaza and the former organizer of the 2019 movement to combat Hamas for 2019.

The NATOR spoke to us from the shattered remains in his city, which is the side of the fabric and a fabric of the tent that is now a part of his home escalating behind.

“The world believes that Gaza is Hamas and Hamas, Gaza,” he said. “We did not choose Hamas and now Hamas is determined by the rule of Gaza and linking our fate on its own. Hamas should decline.”

Speaking it is dangerous. Hamas did not tolerate the opposition. The NATOR appears to be not interested, as he writes an angry column for the Washington Post at the end of March.

“To support Hamas is to be for the Palestinian death,” books, “not Palestinian freedom.”

It was not dangerous to speak this way, I asked him.

“We need to risk and speak publicly,” he answered without hesitation.

“I am thirty years old. When Hamas took over, I was 11 years old. What did I do in my life? I wasted my life between war and escalating violence for nothing.”

Since Hamas took control of Gaza in 2007 by violently overthrowing political competitors, a year after winning the national elections, there have been three main wars with Israel and a smaller conflict.

“Humanity requires to raise our voices, despite the suppression of Hamas,” Al -Natuor said.

Hamas may be occupied in fighting Israel, but it is not afraid to punish its critics.

At the end of March, 22 -year -old Audi Robay was kidnapped by gunmen armed with a refugee shelter in Gaza City.

Hours later, his body was found with horrific injuries.

The Independent Palestinian Human Rights Committee said that Oday was tortured, describing his death as “a serious violation of the right to life and killing outside the judiciary.”

The Oday Al-Rubai family blames Hamas for killing him

Al -Rabai participated in the last Hamas protests. His family blamed Hamas for his death and demanded justice.

A few days ago, one of the frightening lords posted a dark video, loved by social media, expressing his fear that they would come up with enthusiasm coming for him.

“Gaza has become a city of ghosts.”

“I was cut off on the street, and I do not know where to go. I don’t know why they are after me. They destroyed us and brought us.”

At his funeral, a small crowd demanded revenge and repeated demands for Hamas to leave Gaza.

Last summer, Amin Abed suffered from the same fateAfter his decision to speak against Hamas.

The convincing fighters hit him meaningless, broke bones all over his body and damaged the kidneys. Abed survived, but he had to ask for medical treatment abroad.

Now live in Dubai, he is still involved in the protest movement, and it is believed that the Hamas authority is diminishing.

He told me: “The strength of Hamas has begun to vanish.”

“It targets activists and civilians, strikes them and kills them to intimidate people. But not before.”

Before the ceasefire collapsed last month, Hamas fighters seemed to be very clear.

But now, with Israel again unabated, the same militants retreated underground and civilians in Gaza overcame the misery of the war.

Some of the most modern protests indicate that civilians, who lead to the brink of madness for a year and a half, are losing their fear of Hamas.

At the northern end of the Gaza Strip, Beit Lahia witnessed some of the most noisy opposition.

In a series of audio observations, an eyewitness described – he asked not to be named – many of the recent incidents in which the local population prevented Hamas fighters from carrying out military actions from within their community.

On April 13, he said, Hamas gunmen tried to split their way to the home of an elderly man, Jamal Al -Mazran.

“They wanted to launch missiles and tubes [a derogatory term used for some of Hamas’ home-made projectiles] From inside his home, an eyewitness told us.

“But he refused.”

The accident soon escalated, as relatives and neighbors reached the defense of Al -Mazran. The gunmen opened the fire, wounded several people, but in the end they were expelled.

An eyewitness of the demonstrators said: “They did not fear bullets.”

“Go ahead and tell [the gunmen] To take their things and flee. We do not want you in this place. We do not want your weapons that brought us destruction, destruction and death. “

Elsewhere in Gaza, the demonstrators asked the demonstrators to stay away from hospitals and schools, to avoid the positions in which civilians are arrested in Israeli air strikes.

But this challenge is still risky. In Gaza City, Hamas shot one of these demonstrators.

With a little loss and hopes at the end of the war, the war fell again, some Ghazan went to equally in Israel and Hamas.

When asked about any side he blamed the Gaza disaster, Amin Abed said that it was “a choice between cholera and plague.”

The protest movement in recent weeks is not yet a rebellion, but nearly 20 years after the grip of the iron rule over Gaza is slowly slipping.
