Palestinian government officials held a rally in front of the office of
Palestinian Prime Minister and senior Hamas leader Ismail Haneya on Wednesday,
demanding for their wages delayed for two months. After Hamas won the
parliamentary elections and formed the Palestinian government, countries
including Israel and the United States have cut the economic sources of the
Palestinians. Thus, both the Palestinian government and the civilians face the
financial crisis. (Xinhua Photo)
