Liberman Claims Hamas Has Cruise Missiles

Former Israeli Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman stated, Thursday, that Hamas was developing rockets, cluster bombs and drones with jet engines, accusing the Israeli government of hiding this reality .

”Hamas is developing cruise missiles, cluster bombs, and unmanned aerial vehicles with jet engines,” Liberman said in the Knesset. “Do you know what it means for the residents of Israel if, God forbid, a conflict breaks out?”

Lieberman pointed out that the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Benny Gantz are hiding news about the development of Hamas's combat capabilities in the Gaza Strip, adding that, “In the Gaza Strip at least two missiles are produced a day, some of which can reach Hadera.”

“Do you know what price we will pay? If I was you I would have summoned all the regional council heads of Gaza border communities to a meeting with the Defense Minister, so he could explain to them what he intends to do to fight against cruise missiles and cluster bombs,” Liberman stated addressing Gantz.

“It turns out that Gantz is not only a spare prime minister but also a spare defense minister,” he wrote on his Facebook page. “Where else is there in the world a defense minister who doesn't know about agreements to sell weapons and military equipment to neighboring countries.”
