A Gazan version of "X-Factor" is prohibited as Hamas says it "contradicts the customs and traditions of Gaza community."

Hamas banned Gaza residents from taking part in a national reality X-Factor style show called New Star, Palestinian news agency Ma'an reported Monday.

Hamas's reason for prohibiting the television show - produced by Ma'an TV- was that the program was "indecent," Ma'an reported.
