Hamas has mobilized approximately 7,000 security forces to reassert control over Gaza areas recently vacated by Israeli troops, appointing five new military-background governors. The mobilization, issued via calls and texts, aims to "cleanse Gaza of outlaws and Israeli collaborators." Tensions escalated after two elite Hamas members were killed by Dughmush clan gunmen in Gaza City's Sabra neighborhood. Hamas surrounded 300 Dughmush fighters, killing one and kidnapping 30 others. The deployment raises concerns about Gaza's post-war governance, potentially complicating President Trump's peace plan requiring Hamas disarmament. Experts warn Gaza faces civil war risks due to widespread looted weapons, frustration, and chaos among the exhausted population. (PC: BBC & Reuters)
