Hamas, officially known as the Islamic Resistance Movement, is a Sunni Islamist organization with a dual political and military role. This group currently exercises governance over the Gaza Strip within the Palestinian territories. Its inception can be traced back to the early days of the First Palestinian Intifada, a period marked by a sustained series of protests and violent uprisings initiated by Palestinians in response to the Israeli military occupation of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. This momentous uprising began in the aftermath of Israel's triumph in the 1967 Arab–Israeli War and unfolded over the course of several years, from December 1987 and culminating in the Madrid Conference of 1991, although some argue its conclusion came with the signing of the Oslo Accords in 1993.
