IDF Phones Gazans to Slam Hamas for Wasting Money on Tunnels
(Ha'aretz) Jack Khoury - Palestinians in Gaza said they received phone calls from the IDF on Friday accusing Hamas of spending funds on terrorism instead of on the local residents. According to a report by AFP, which appeared in Al-Quds Al-Arabi, the message tells Gazans that Hamas is investing money in digging cross-border tunnels to be used in terror attacks against Israel and that it would be better if these funds were used to improve the quality of life in Gaza, especially for health, education and basic infrastructure. Gazans were told that use of the money to dig tunnels was a primary reason for inflation and the high cost of living in Gaza.
