(Ha'aretz) Jack Khoury - Mohammed Deif, the Hamas military commander targeted by Israel during last summer's war in Gaza, is alive and involved in Hamas' military decisions. Hamas military efforts are now focused on rebuilding forces and digging attack tunnels. The rebuilding of the tunnels is underway around the clock, with a workforce of 1,000 men. Construction materials come primarily from private individuals, who receive them to rebuild their homes, then sell them on the black market. Hamas is also working to rehabilitate its rocket capabilities, especially with long-range, 150-km. rockets. Deif is personally involved in advancing this project.
