News Brief

(IsraelNN.com) Approximately 2,000 terrorists entered Gaza from Egypt after the destruction of the Rafiah border barrier and are waiting to attack Israel, according to the Bethlehem-based Maan news agency. Some of the terrorists recently arrived from Iraq, where they were involved in attacks on American troops. Hamas, with the help of Iranian terrorists, is training the terrorists at its bases and camps.

The destruction of the barrier at Rafiah more than two weeks ago enabled the terrorists to bring into Gaza advanced anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles, according to Palestinian Authority (PA) officials. Hamas's Iran representative threatened Israel with more suicide attacks similar to the one carried out in Dimona Monday morning.
