Israel’s leadership received a highly classified document last week with details on Hamas’s military rehabilitation in the part of the Gaza Strip that the terror group controls, Channel 13 reports.
The document indicates that Hamas is adding dozens of fighters to each of its battalions, and is manufacturing hundreds of mortar shells, IEDs, and anti-tank missiles every month.
It also says that Hamas has conducted dozens of training exercises recently, and while it is not digging new tunnels, it is doing maintenance work on existing ones.
According to the document, Hamas rehabilitation could over time result in a “significant leap” in its military capabilities, reports Channel 13.
