Egyptian security forces blocked two Hamas officials on Tuesday from entering the Gaza Strip with night-vision goggles and around $900,000 in cash, security and customs officials said. The Hamas officials were stopped at the Gaza border after customs agents found the cash, 500,000 euros and $250,000, during a search of their bags as they headed home after taking part in Palestinian reconciliation talks in Cairo. It was the second time in two months that Egyptian authorities had stopped Hamas officials from bringing large sums of money into Gaza.
