Israel targets Hamas economy via banknote ban
Israeli forces issued a warning to Palestinians in the Gaza Strip to cease handling old banknotes of the "200 shekel" denomination, as part of a move to tighten the economic grip on Hamas. Israeli banks recommended exchanging these notes and warned residents that their money could lose its value at any time. The leadership of Hamas was accused of using old currency to pay salaries while keeping the new notes in their possession. Currently, Israel is hindering salary payments by restricting the entry of new currency and preventing further issuance as part of its efforts to tighten the economic blockade on the movement.
