[Elder Of Ziyon - Israel News] Report: Egypt arrests another Hamas member

Palestine Press Agency quotes a german news agency that Egyptian authorities have arrested a member of Hamas' al Qassam Brigades in the Sinai.

According to the report, his name is Aref Ghanem. He infiltrated into Egypt through a smuggling tunnel and was discovered in the area of Salah al-Din.

The report says that Ghanem had a sniper rifle.

He has been transferred to a security station in El Arish to investigate.

Hamas has strenuously denied having anything to do with the militants in the Sinai, but this is not the first report of a Hamas member being arrested by Egypt.
