Hamas Tells Followers: Turn Off Phones

(IsraelNN.com) PA Prime Minister and Hamas faction chief Ismail Haniyeh encouraged Hamas terrorists to refrain from using their cellular phones, travel, or congregate in groups in order to avoid detection by Israel. He also encouraged them to keep fighting until they achieve “victory or martyrdom”. He encouraged the continued rocket fire against Israeli population centers.

Israel’s National Infrastructure Minister Binyamin Ben Eliezer and Public Security Minister Avi Dichter warned that the IDF was not just targeting the front-line terrorists, but those involved in planning and ordering terror activities, including Haniyeh himself and Damascus-based Hamas spiritual leader Khaled Meshaal.
