PA adds âconfiscatedâ Qassam rockets to armory
JPost - Reg ReqâdIsrael Radio Territories Correspondent Avi Yissakharov reported on the noon news program that Palestinian security sources claim that have confiscated ten Qassam missiles as well as mortars in the Gaza Strip. "Since the Palestinians have made no indication that they plan to follow the Roadmap and transfer the weapons to a third party (e.g. America) for removal, it would appear that if the Palestinian report is correct that they have come up with a novel way to arm their security forces with weapons systems that are beyond those permitted in the Oslo agreements," Dr. Aaron Lerner, Director IMRA (Independent Media Review) told The Jerusalem Post. While Yissakharov reported the Palestinian claimed they were carrying out a weapons collection program in the Gaza Strip, another Israel Radio correspondent said he checked with his sources in Hamas and Islamic Jihad and they all told him no such weapons collection was underway.
