Palestinians Prepare New, High-explosive Warheads for Qassam Missiles

The Palestinians have smuggled in from Sinai to the Gaza Strip what military sources have told DEBKAfile’ is “a monstrous amount” of high explosives (lethal explosives from military production factories in Slovakia and Serbia), to improve the precision and effectiveness of the Qassam missiles fired across the border against Israeli towns and villages. Once the homemade primitive warheads are replaced with military-grade explosives, the Palestinian terrorists can hope to inflict death and destruction on an entirely different scale. Israeli officers in the southern command have warned the Sharon government that the new explosives not only place the big power station and oil port installations of Ashkelon in great peril, but arm Palestinian suicide bombers with more powerful bomb vests and can be used in car bombs for assaults on a level previously unknown in the Palestinian war against Israel.
