Someone in Hamas Must Have Known prior to Gaza Bombing of Visiting PA Leaders

(Times of Israel) Avi Issacharoff - This week, someone attempted to murder PA Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah and PA General Intelligence Chief Majed Faraj as they visited Gaza. According to Hamas Deputy Interior Minister Tawfik Abu Naim, there were two 15-kg. bombs placed 37 meters from each other. One bomb exploded but the second failed to detonate. The devices were placed on the main north-south route through Gaza only a few hundred meters away from the Erez border crossing to Israel - and under the nose of Hamas security forces. "There is no chance that someone in Hamas didn't know that these bombs were placed there," a senior PA official said.
