DEBKAfile news site said that Six Muslim Brotherhood officials have escaped from Egypt and arrived in the Gaza Strip to lead the movement’s uprising against the military.
It added that those leaders are under the command of Mahmud Izzat Ibrahim, a Supreme Guide deputy known as the MB’s ‘iron man'.
The group has set up a command post at the Gaza Beach Hotel and is working in close conjunction with Hamas and armed Al Qaeda-linked Salafist Bedouin in Sinai, it added.
