I dunno if it's a "red line" but it would certainly be awkward.Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz said Sunday that Palestinian Authority military intelligence agents were involved in recent attempts to smuggle anti-aircraft missiles into Gaza.
Speaking at the weekly cabinet meeting,
Mofaz said Strela missiles may have been smuggled into the Gaza Strip from Egypt through tunnels, despite the fact that the PA has recently acted against such infrastructure and exposed about 20 tunnels.Mofaz said that the presence of the missiles in Palestinian hands would cross a red line, adding that Israel demanded the PA work to prevent such efforts and locate any missiles that may already be in the Gaza
Strip.
The minister did not disclose when the alleged smuggling took place.
