The demonstrators gathered outside the offices of the Palestinian Legislative Council (PLC) in Gaza City to protest against the decision, which has led to delays in welfare payments to tens of thousands of needy families.
The cabinet of former PA prime minister Mahmoud Abbas decided in August to freeze 39 bank accounts of 12 Islamic charities accused of being affiliated with Hamas and Islamic Jihad.
The move followed American and Israeli pressure on Abbas to crack down on groups accused of funding Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists.
The protesters – carrying placards that read, "We want justice, we want food" and "Where is the money of the orphans?" – threw stones and empty bottles at the PLC compound, the PA Monetary Fund, and Abbas's former offices in Gaza City.
PA policemen fired into the air and lobbed stun grenades at the demonstrators, but no casualties were reported.
