Hamas's iron grip on Gaza's streets is now the story inside the story
Wire coverage of Gaza still leads with strikes and casualty counts. The under-reported story, who actually controls the streets, the courts and the press inside the strip, is the one shaping what any post-war authority will inherit.

Desk note: Monexus ran this as an internal-repression lead rather than as a bombardment lead because the under-reported story of the day is what is happening inside Gaza's civic space, not what is falling on it from outside. Both are facts; only one is being missed.
