The Arabic language Palestinian news website, “Pulse of the Nation” reports today that there are at least 1,500 laser guided anti-tank missiles in the Gaza Strip

The article claims that in the last three weeks large shipments of North Korean weapons have been smuggled through Sinai to the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, the military arm of Hamas.

According to the article,  units of the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades can be observed engaged in exercises in the Gaza Strip that involve launching anti-tank missiles.

The article claims that while the Egyptian air force attacks the smuggling tunnels in the Rafah area every few days, Hamas continues to succeed in smuggling as for each tunnel actually used for smuggling Hamas has three or four tunnels that serve only as “camouflage” for the working tunnels.
