North Korean and Chinese anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs) have reportedly been found in Gaza

  • North Korean and Chinese anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs) have reportedly been found in Gaza

  • The missiles appear to be:

  • A Chinese HJ-8 Red Arrow series ATGM

  • A North Korean Bulsae-2 ATGM

  • The Bulsae-2 is believed to be a copy of the Russian 9M111 ATGM, from the 9K11 anti-tank guided weapon (ATGW) system

  • HJ-8 ATGMs have been operated by Hezbollah in Lebanon in recent months

  • ATGMs are rare for Gaza given the predominantly short-range urban combat
