Ismail Haniyeh has been elected to a second term as head of Hamas movement that controls the Gaza Strip, two Palestinian officials told Reuters on Sunday.
"Haniyeh was re-elected as the head of the movement's political office for a second time," one official told Reuters. His term will last four years.
Haniyeh, the group's leader since 2017, has controlled its political activities throughout several armed confrontations with Israel - including an 11-day conflict in May that left over 250 in Gaza and 13 in Israel dead.
