Hamas Orders Chinese Military Equipment

JERUSALEM [MENL] -- Israel has determined that the Hamas regime has been
ordering weapons and military equipment from China.
Israeli officials said the Hamas regime in the Gaza Strip has sent
agents to Beijing to negotiate weapons deals with state-owned Chinese
companies. In 2008, they said, Chinese-origin extended-range rockets were
acquired and sent to the Gaza Strip via Iran.
"We now believe that Hamas has been dealing directly with Chinese
suppliers, rather than through Iran," an official said.
