Hamas has 'wings'

I found the first paragraph of this Reuters story quite interesting.

Hamas's armed wing declared an end to a five-month-old Gaza ceasefire on Tuesday by firing rockets into Israel, but the Palestinian government led by the Islamist group called for the truce to be restored.

So is this official? Hamas has 'wings'? If so, it doesn't matter much. One wing will still know what the other is doing in most situations. It would add a very IRA/Sinn Fein touch to the Palestinians. My bigger concern is if Reuters unilaterally decided to make this split. If that is the case, it is just another example of biased, terrorist friendly reporting on the part of Reuters because it attempts to split the violence of Hamas from the politics of Hamas, and that's just not possible.
