Hundreds of Palestinians in Gaza expressed outrage in rare anti-Hamas protests for a second consecutive day. AFP news agency reported that according to witnesses, protesters have called for an end to the war with Israel.
The rare public outburst against Hamas began on Tuesday in the northern Gaza town of Beit Lahiya, where some 3,000 people gathered, with many chanting "the people want the fall of Hamas," AP news agency reported.
Northern Gaza has been hit particularly hard during the war, with most of its infrastructure reduced to rubble and with scores displaced.
In the hard-hit Shijaiyah neighborhood of Gaza City, dozens of men chanted "Out, out out! Hamas get out!" according to AP reporting.
In Gaza City protesters were seen holding banners reading "Hamas does not represent us."
The rare show of dissent towards the militant group comes more than a week after the Israeli army resumed its bombing campaign following nearly two months of a truce.
