Those differences were on display over the weekend after Israel launched an airstrike on southern Gaza that targeted Muhammad Deif, the leader of Hamas’s military wing, and killed dozens of people.

And a growing number of Palestinians have argued that Fatah and Hamas need to find common ground in order to advance the reconstruction of Gaza when the current war ends — even though many are pessimistic about the prospect.

“There’s still a major divide between Hamas and Fatah, but there’s an absolute necessity that they achieve a national consensus for the administration of Gaza,” said Ibrahim Dalalsha, director of the Horizon Center, a Palestinian political research group.

Hamas officials have expressed willingness to give up civilian control of Gaza, handing responsibility for rebuilding the enclave to a government of independents — although it has ruled out dismantling its military wing.

The establishment of an independent government in Gaza without formal ties to Hamas could make it easier for the United States, European nations and international organizations to participate in rebuilding the territory.

It has also deepened its investments in the region, and pledged to expand cooperation with countries there in areas such as artificial intelligence, where the United States has sought to isolate China.
