Hamas is expected to hold internal elections in the Gaza Strip next week to choose the head of its political bureau for the territory, Middle East Eye reported. Ali Al-Amoudi is the most likely candidate for the position, according to the report.
The vote marks a significant organizational moment for the movement as it manages its administrative structures in Gaza. Internal elections within Hamas have been rare in recent years, making the planned ballot a notable development in the group's governance procedures. The timing of the election underscores Hamas's effort to maintain institutional continuity during the territory's ongoing conflict with Israel.
