An Arab country has recently arrested Israeli Mossad agents, which were plotting to assassinate high-level Hamas political leaders abroad, including the head of the movement politburo Khaled Meshaal, a top Hamas official was quoted as saying on Wednesday.
Might be Mossad, might be just somebody off the street.
In an exclusive statement to IslamOnline.net, Mohammad Nazal, a member of the Hamas politburo, said officials in the said "Arab country", notified the movement leaders they must take utmost precautionary measures in their movements. Nazal declined, however, to specifically name the Arab country, but sources have speculated the "Arab country" is Syria.
When I hear of high-level Hamas leaders, I think of Syria too.
"Israel is still adamant on its policy of assassinating Hamas leaders in and outside Palestine but the movement has been able to thwart such schemes by adopting strict security measures," Nazal confirmed. Press reports suggest that Meshaal, who moves among a number of Arab countries, was last seen in Qatar.
Really? Have to talk to Qatar about that. |
