Palestinian Authority to force 6,000 Gaza employees to retire early

The Palestinian Authority decides to grant early retirement to 6,145 of its employees in the Gaza Strip.

The move is part of an ongoing pressure campaign by the PA against the Hamas rulers of the coastal territory.

The retired clerks are set to receive pensions equal to 70 percent of their current salaries, according to a PA statement.
