Israeli military intelligence has determined that Egypt, Libya, and Yemen have become the leading suppliers of weapons to insurgency groups in the Gaza Strip.
"The weapons are smuggled by private gangs but with full knowledge of the authorities of these countries," a military source said. The sources said arms dealers purchase AK-47 assault rifles, rocket-propelled grenades, rocket and missile components, ammunition, and explosives that are shipped to Egypt's Sinai Peninsula and then smuggled over the border into the Gaza Strip or Israel.
