Interfidel Strife between Hizb Ut-Tahrir and Hamas

The wording of this Ma'an News story is confusing in the first paragraph. The Hizb guys were trying to have the "festival," and the Hamasniks were trying to stop it. When the Caliphate comes Hamas will be the first ones against the wall?
Hizb Ut-Tahrir said Gaza government security forces assaulted and detained dozens of the faction's supporters on Tuesday, who were trying to stop the convening of a festival, a statement read.

The pan-Islamist party said forces arrived at the event and opened fire in the air to disperse conveners, injuring an infant at a nearby balcony.

Palestinian medical sources confirmed the injury, saying the baby girl was evacuated to the Ash-Shifa Hospital in Gaza Strip for treatment, where she was transferred to the intensive care unit.

Hizb Ut-Tahrir further said several supporters were detained and violently beaten. Security forces disassemble the stage erected for the festival, the movement added.

A Gaza government police representative denied the report, but said the festival was being held without the required permit.
