Hamas planned to use a horse-drawn chariot to attack Israel, documents found in Gaza have revealed.

Leaders of the terror group drew up plans to launch an ambitious array of attacks on Israel, including by sea and rail, years before the October 7 massacre.

The documents, found by the IDF in Gaza and seen by the Washington Post, suggest that Hamas had been planning to topple a Tel Aviv skyscraper, blow up trains, and were pressing Iran to fund their efforts to destroy Israel.

Hamas leaders had also planned to use horse-drawn carriages to carry fighters and weapons across rugged terrain into Israel. The plans note that these vehicles would emit less sound and heat than motorcycles.

The Washington Post could not verify the authenticity of the documents, shared with them by the Israeli army, but cited US sources who did not doubt that they were genuine.

Makes Ben Hur look like an epic!

I am also reminded of the line in the 1955 film Land of the Pharaohs. Jack Hawkins as Pharaoh Khufu – “Saddle my fastest camel!”
