GAZA (Reuters)Hamas vowed Monday to rearm in defiance of any Israeli and international efforts to prevent the Islamist militant group from replenishing its arsenal of rockets and other weapons after the Gaza war.

“Do whatever you want. Manufacturing the holy weapons is our mission and we know how to acquire weapons,” Abu Ubaida, a spokesman for Hamas’s armed wing, told a news conference.

Addressing journalists with his face masked by a checkered Arab scarf, he said “all options would be open” if Israel failed to pull its troops out of the Gaza Strip within a week, a demand raised by Hamas when it announced Sunday a ceasefire after three weeks of fighting.
