Palestinian sources told Lebanese newspaper al-Akhbar that in the past two days, balloons have been launched at the Gaza envelope by units belonging to the Supreme Committee of the Return Marches, a body affiliated with Hamas and factions in the Gaza Strip. In a report released Wednesday (Wednesday), sources said that the balloons were not carrying explosives or combustion as in the past, but were intended to serve as a threat in light of the delay in passing the Qatari grant. The sources warned that in a few days, many balloons would be launched as they would be attached to chargers and combustion materials. 

According to the report, the Supreme Committee of the "Return Marches" held a meeting at the "Popular Front" headquarters to discuss a series of actions on the occasion of "Naksa Day" (the Arab alias of the anniversary of the Six Day War) and the rejection of the Israeli sovereignty project in Judea and Samaria.

The newspaper close to Hamas has learned that the Palestinian factions in the Gaza Strip have agreed to give the mediators time until the beginning of next week to compel Israel to implement the understandings. For the past two days, Hamas and Islamic Jihad have been in contact with the Egyptians to understand Israel's position.

As part of the talks, Cairo officials have assured terrorist organizations that the new unity government will continue to implement the understandings. Nonetheless, organizations have told Egypt that the delay in the Qatari money entry is a sign that Israel is interested in escalating the escalation, and warned of a major response that would include the use of all measures in the border area quickly.

According to the report, in parallel with the gradual repetition of the escalation and the threats of Hamas and Islamic Jihad, sources in the terrorist organizations have revealed to the Al-Akhbar that IDF drones are intensively holidaying in the Gaza Strip. According to the sources, the aircraft were documented as carrying missiles and as a result the level of alert was recently raised at the security and military levels, whether for fear of exploiting the current situation to carry out operations against the capabilities of the organizations or for fear of assassination of commanders.

At the same time, Palestinian sources revealed last night on a Gaza news site that there are difficulties in transferring the monthly Qatari grant to the Gaza Strip. The local "Sama" agency cited Palestinian sources, which she said were about the $ 100 Qatari grant issue for a needy family. According to those sources, flights from Qatar have been completely halted and Qatari envoy Mohammed al-Amadi's arrival in the Gaza Strip is not yet in the offing due to the Corona crisis, the closures of the crossings and the demand for medical isolation. 

In the same publication, the sources denied reports that the monthly Qatari grant of tens of millions of dollars had been suspended, claiming it was expected to continue. The same reports say that the Israeli government has decided not to allow the Qatari grant to enter Hamas and stop all special reliefs until the return of the Hadar Goldin and Oron Saul spaces, stating that Al-Amadi's request to travel to the Gaza Strip was rejected. As mentioned, these reports were denied in the publication of "Sama".

Remember, Amir Qatar Tamim Ben Hamed decided to continue providing financial assistance to the Gaza Strip for an estimated $ 180 million for six months, grants including support for tens of thousands of needy families, humanitarian projects and fuel purchases. This is in the context of the Qatari efforts to regulate Israel and Hamas and the relief of the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip. 

Against this backdrop, in recent days reports have been circulating in Gaza media about their return to the activities of Molotov cocktails. Last week, a statement from the Nasser Descendants Unit affiliated with the Resistance Committees issued an ultimatum to Israel to allow medical equipment to be transferred to hospitals in the Gaza Strip for the purpose of combating the corona virus.
