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)
