Hamas Seeks Role for Its Police in Gaza
(Reuters) Nidal Al-Mughrabi - Hamas is seeking to incorporate its 10,000 police officers into a new U.S.-backed Palestinian administration for Gaza, sources say, a demand likely to be opposed by Israel. In a letter to staff on Sunday, Gaza's Hamas-run government urged its 40,000 civil servants and security personnel to cooperate with the new National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG) but assured them it was working to incorporate them into the new government.
