Hamas captures dolphin ‘spying’ for Israel

Not to be outdone, in 2007, an Iranian state news agency reported the supposed “arrest” of 14 squirrels on espionage charges.

The location and condition of the animal is not known, and Israeli officials have not made any comments on this matter.

A delegation of Hamas officials, led by Ismail Haniyeh, will travel to Cairo soon for talks with Egypt’s intelligence chief about a long-term truce with Israel, Arab media outlets have reported.

“Israel is officially clarifying that it is not holding any meetings with Hamas, neither directly, nor via other countries or intermediaries”, the office of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a statement.

His statement followed on from a string of reports in recent weeks and months that claimed Israel was in talks with Hamas, which it considers a terrorist organisation.

Egyptian authorities on Thursday kept the Rafah crossing with the blockaded Gaza Strip for the 4th consecutive day.

He said that his ministry had contacted its Egyptian counterpart “to establish the circumstances of what happened and demand that the Egyptians work to protect the victims and release them”.

Hamas, the ruling party of the Palestinian Authority, is flipping out after discovering a dolphin-which they claim is actually working as a spy for Israel.

A bus with about fifty Palestinians on it was travelling from Rafah on the Egypt-Gaza border to Cairo airport when it was ambushed by the gunmen, the security sources said.

It was picked up just outside the port of Gaza.

The official website of Hamas, however, does not provide any information about the incident.

Turkey would be a willing buyer, but better relations are needed, because a pipeline for the gas to be exported north would have to cut through Turkish territorial waters.

A spokesperson for Hamas said that any proposal offered regarding a ceasefire will be presented to the Palestinian factions.
