The Palestinian security forces said Friday it discovered Israeli
listening devices hidden into the walls of the Palestinian main security
headquarters in the center of Gaza City.

main Palestinian headquarters for all the Palestinian security apparatuses.
Israel had occupied the Gaza Strip in 1967 and had been using alSaraya as
their military command and as a central prison. It had evacuated it after the
Palestinian National Authority (PNA) took over in 1994.
A senior Palestinian security official said the engineering unit of the
Palestinian military intelligence had discovered on Wednesday a net of tiny
sophisticated electronic sets.
The official, who spoke on conditions of anonymity, said the sedevices are so
special for listening and were hidden into some walls of the buildings of al
Saraya, adding tiny cameras and sounds devices were also found.
The official said the devices are connected with batteries that are charged
automatically by the heat and the warms of the walls.
