Hamas rulers in Gaza Strip have prohibited the display of women's underwear outside shops in Rafah, southern Gaza Strip on July 29, 2010. The Islamist rulers of the Gaza Strip have ordered lingerie shops to display more modesty. A week after banning women from smoking water pipes in public places, the Hamas-run police force has told stores selling women's underwear to remove scantily-clad mannequins and any posters of racy under garments.
