"In the January 2006 Palestinian parliamentary elections, Hamas won a decisive majority in the Palestinian Parliament,[39] defeating the PLO-affiliated Fatah party."
" In 2011, Hamas and Fatah announced a reconciliation agreement that provides for creation of a joint caretaker Palestinian government."
"Hamas comprises three interrelated wings – the social welfare and political wings, which are responsible for the social, administrative, political, and propaganda activities of Hamas, and the military wing, which is engaged in covert activities, such as acting against suspected collaborators, gathering intelligence on potential targets, procuring weapons, and carrying out military attacks."
