Hi,

We obtained the tzdata2024a from IANA. 
Below is the Rule for Asia/Gaza extracted from tzdata2024a:
                                 ...
Rule Palestine 2022 2035 - Oct Sat<=30 2:00 0 -
Rule Palestine 2023 only - Apr 29 2:00 1:00 S
Rule Palestine 2024 only - Apr 20 2:00 1:00 S
Rule Palestine 2025 only - Apr 12 2:00 1:00 S
                                            ...

Asia/Gaza POSIX TZ string (generated by zic): EET-2EEST,M3.4.4/50,M10.4.4/50"

The rule specifies that DST in 2024 starts on April 20th. 
Why then does the POSIX TZ string use M3.4.4? Is this a bug? 
or is there any other reason?  Thanks.

Best regards,
Meng Chen
