Three senior Hamas figures were involved in the attack on an Egyptian position in Rafah last August, in which 16 Egyptian officers were killed, Egyptian magazine Al-Ahram Al-Arabi reported.
The report named Raed al-Atar, the commander of Hamas' military wing in Rafah, as one of the people who orchestrated the attack. Al-Atar was one of the terrorists behind the kidnapping of Gilad Shalit. Hamas denied the report and claimed the magazine was cooperating with Israel. (Roi Kais)
