Shin Bet approves 3,000 Gazan workers for "New Rafah" construction, Hamas allegedly blocking access

Israel's Shin Bet has approved 3,000 Gazan laborers to work on constructing "New Rafah," but Hamas is preventing them from reaching the site, according to Israel Hayom. The construction areas have been cleared and are under IDF control. Hamas is also tightening control over Gaza's economy and intimidating merchants, while American reconstruction plans remain stalled.
