Hamas Ends Boycott of Israeli Products in Gaza
(Gulf News-Dubai) Nasouh Nazzal - Hamas, which rules Gaza, has decided to end its boycott of Israeli products. Emad Al Baz, the Assistant Undersecretary of the Ministry of National Economy in Gaza, said Israeli products are the only possible solution to meet shortages in the local market. He said his ministry, in collaboration with the Ministry of Finance, has imposed taxes on Israeli products. The taxes will cover the ministry's operating expenses and are a creative tool to come up with extra funds.
