Hamas Official: We Have Been Secretly Planning the Invasion for Two Years
(MEMRI) Senior Hamas official Ali Baraka said in an Oct. 8, 2023, interview on Russia Today TV that Hamas had been secretly planning the invasion of Israel for two years, even as it was making it seem like it was busy governing Gaza. He explained that this is the reason Hamas did not join Palestinian Islamic Jihad in its previous round of fighting against Israel. Baraka said that Hamas has a license from Russia to locally produce bullets for Kalashnikovs, that Russia sympathizes with Hamas, and that it is pleased with the war because it is easing American pressure on it with regard to the war in Ukraine.
