Israel has systematically worked to dismantle Hamas’s governing structure in Gaza, targeting its administrative and security institutions. This has left a vacuum in the management of civil and security affairs, prompting clans and local committees to assume temporary service and organizational roles in the absence of a central alternative. At the same time, Israel seeks to employ these formations within a model of “utilization without empowerment” in an attempt to replicate the experience of the Palestinian Village Leagues in an updated form—without offering any organized political alternative. This reflects a fragile reality in which societal necessity intersects with Israeli calculations.
