US Sanctions on Hamas Funding Network
The U.S. government imposed sanctions on a fundraising network for Hamas, including a member of the group's military wing and fundraising officials in France. This was done due to their transfer of over two million dollars through fake charities, shell companies, and financial fronts that relied on cryptocurrencies and cash companies. The Treasury Department confirmed that the network used sophisticated methods to finance Hamas, with a high capacity to evade regulatory measures. The prominent member is Salim Abdullah Salim Al-Zuq, the deputy commander of Hamas's military battalion in Gaza, who supervised the transfer of funds through various companies and financial systems.
