ISIS's Sinai commander in Gaza for Hamas talks
- 9 years ago
Shadi al-Menei, the commander of the Islamic State branch Sinai Province, is currently in Gaza on a secret visit to speak with Hamas leaders.
The channel notes that Hamas is being aided by ISIS in order to smuggle in weapons through the cross-border tunnels that Egypt's army has not yet destroyed, and in return is providing Sinai Province with advanced weapons such as Cornet anti-tank missiles which ISIS has used in Sinai against Egypt - including against an Egyptian patrol ship .
Back in July Israel announced it had information that Hamas had supplied ISIS with the weapons it used in a particularly brutal attack on Egyptian soldiers that left over 70 dead.
Days after the revelation, a senior IDF officer said Hamas was cooperating with Sinai Peninsula to keep its influx of weapons going through smuggling tunnels, and prepare for its next war against Israel.
