Hamas is used as a byword for the paramilitary organisation Al Qassam in foreign media. The Hamas government outside of Al Qassam is almost boringly normal. Like the Gaza Health Ministry is part of the Hamas Government.

Hamas and also Isis performed the functions of local government in their controlled areas.
