Hamas-Run Gaza Banks Closed

(Gaza Strip) Hamas-run banks in Gaza closed today because they don't have enough money to operate. Insufficient bank notes are available to pay more than 77,000 government workers. Israel is blamed for not allowing cash to enter Gaza through border crossings.

I suspect that paying workers is low on the priority list of expenditures incurred by Hamas. Freedom fighters, weapons dealers and tunnel diggers probably have first dibs.
