The Gaza-Egypt Border Became Hamas' Smuggling Hub
(Walla-Jerusalem Post) Amir Bohbot - The IDF Southern Command is working on a plan to address the Philadelphi Corridor along the Gaza-Egypt border in order to prevent the rearmament of Hamas terrorists. An IDF special forces officer explained, "The scope of the captured munitions since the beginning of the war is unprecedented. The volume of munitions and anti-tank missiles used against us is on a scale reminiscent of the warfare of global Jihadist organizations in Syria and Iraq." The numbers show that Hamas smuggled weapons and ammunition through tunnels beneath the Philadelphi Corridor or crossed through an Egyptian-controlled checkpoint.
