Hamas Hub To Fund Terror And Support Families Uncovered


It was announced that in a joint activity of the Israel Security Agency (ISA/Shin Bet) and the Israel Police Central Unit recently exposed Hamas’ financial hubs, in the context of which terrorist funds were transferred to the families of Hamas terrorists, including those carrying out serious terrorist attacks.

These centers are run by Hamas operatives in Gaza, whose goal is to encourage terrorism and provide an ‘economic back’ for the families of terrorists.

In light of the intelligence information passed on by the Shin Bet, Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman approved the seizure of funds transferred from Hamas to Jerusalem residents, or equivalent to a sum over 130,000 shekels. Subsequently a large sale search was carried out in the homes of the money launderers and cash and a vehicle were seized.

During the operation cash used by family members of terrorists was seized. This includes the father of the terrorist from Beit Haninah which carried out the October 2015 stabbing attack in Pisgat Ze’ev in Jerusalem in which two Israelis were injured seriously and critically. The list also includes a Ras el-Amud terrorist who was involved in the 1994 abduction and murder of Sgt. Nachshon Wachsman HY”D. The families of the terrorists were enjoying funds distributed to them by Hamas following the perpetration of the murderous attacks.
