Salafists linked with the Islamic State (ISIS) blew up six Hamas and Islamic Jihad vehicles in simultaneous attacks in Gaza City Sunday morning.

At least two people were wounded.

The ability to stage a coordinated attack in the Hamas stronghold reflects both the capabilities of the jihadists as well as the growing vulnerability of Hamas, whose regime has brought misery, depression and war to the local population.

An ISIS poster was found near one of the vehicles that as exploded.

Israel’s Reshet Bet (Voice of Israel) suggested that terrorists may have used the ISIS poster to frame the Islamists for attacks, which could have been carried only with highly organized support.

The fact that there were not many injuries offers a hint that it might have been Palestinian Authority Fatah terrorists who staged the rare attack with the intent of scaring Hamas but without causing an immediate upheaval.

So much for the “unity” that the Obama so highly applauded earlier this year.

Hamas, which recently has fallen back into Iran’s good graces, is in a serious crisis and has been outlawed in Gaza.

Senior Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal won a rare audience last week with Saudi Arabia ling Salman, the first time in four years a Saudi king has publicly confirmed discussions with the Gaza regime.
