Published on Mar 8, 2021
The political sands are shifting in the region. New alliances are being formed that until recently would have been unimaginable. But as the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and, potentially, Sudan forge closer relationships with Israel, where does this leave the Palestinians, particularly those in Gaza? How is Hamas - the elected government of Gaza - and its paramilitary wing, the Qassam Brigades, adjusting to the new regional political climate? In this film, Al Jazeera Arabicâ€™s Tamer Almisshal meets Hamasâ€™s political leader Ismail Haniya and discovers dramatic and surprising military preparations that may seriously concern Israel and its allies.
