Hizbullah Has Restored Long-Range Missile Arsenal; Israel Targets Hizbullah-Funded West Bank Terror Cells

[Ha'aretz] Avi Issacharoff and Yoav Stern - Hizbullah has restored its military capabilities, particularly its long-range missile arsenal, senior Israeli security sources confirmed Monday. Syrian officials are directly involved in the transfer of missiles from Iran to Hizbullah, a senior Israeli security source said. "This is not smuggling, but the open transfer of weapons," he said. Palestinian security sources said Monday that Hizbullah's efforts to penetrate Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades cells in the West Bank have been seriously curtailed. Israel's security forces have killed or arrested many of the cells that had been under Hizbullah control, mostly in the area of Nablus and the northern West Bank. Also, the flow of cash from Hizbullah has been contained. The PA has also made an effort to convince Al-Aqsa Brigades militants not to accept funding from foreign sources. However, Israeli security sources say Hizbullah's overall activity in the West Bank continues unabated through other Palestinian militant groups.
