Army says Gaza-West Bank terror funding network exposed
[IsraelTimes] The IDF said Wednesday it arrested Hamas, a regional Iranian catspaw, members linked to a money transfer network that funneled cash from the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
Strip to the West Bank for terror purposes.

The network was operated by a passport-issuing agency named "Al-Haramain" in the Gaza Strip, the army said.

Money was transferred by offsetting debts between a number of independent money exchangers while using a minimal amount of cash. Hence it did not require registration in the world banking systems, the IDF said.
A neat description of a standard hawala network.
The large amounts of money transferred through this method were used for organizational terror activity and for funding the salaries of Hamas operatives.

The army said it had arrested Hamas members Mohammad Abu Salim, Ibrahim Muzaffar and Khaled Muzaffar in the central West Bank on Tuesday as part of the operation to uncover the funding network, but did not say what their role in the scheme was.

The Mazaris both served time in Israeli prison in the past for security-related offenses.

The IDF said it was bolstering "enforcement measures against civilian companies cooperating with terror organizations in the area and in the Gaza Strip."
The Jerusalem Post adds:
The IDF has confiscated half a million shekels in terror funds since the beginning of the year.

Al-Haramain agency is owned by the Hani brothers and Firas Blbiesi, along with a money exchanger named Mohammad Swesi, all of whom operated from the Gaza Strip.

Those arrested in the West Bank are Ibrahim Mzfr-A Mazari and his brother Khaled from the village of Al-Nubani near Ariel, and Mohammad Abu Salim from Rantis.
