IDF urges Gaza residents to exchange old banknotes, prevent Hamas's financial exploitation

"Most of the old-issue banknotes have already been replaced with new ones some time ago. If any of you still possess those old banknotes, you face a serious financial risk," Waweya wrote.

Hamas says it is ready to disarm under the next phase of the US-brokered Gaza peace plan, but Benjamin Netanyahu claims Israel never agreed to that part of deal, which would require Israel to simultaneously withdraw.
