Israeli President Isaac Herzog said Sunday that Israeli forces found evidence that Hamas intended to manufacture chemical weapons to use against the Israeli population.
Herzog explained that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) found, on the body of a dead terrorist, a USB with instructions to build a "cyanide dispersion device."
During an interview with Sky News, the president showed a document that read "Al Qaeda" and assured that it was "official Al Qaeda material." "We're dealing with Isis, Al-Qaeda and Hamas."
A USB device found on Hamas terrorists proves that the murderous terrorist organization planned to use cyanide against the civilian population, just like Al-Qaeda terrorists.
