The Shin Bet added that the interrogation of Burash also revealed additional Hamas operatives embedded in other aid organizations.

“This investigation shows the manner in which Hamas takes advantage of aid resources from international organizations in Gaza, which are intended to be used as humanitarian aid for the civilian population,” the Shin Bet stated.

News of Burash’s arrest comes just one week after the Shin Bet also announced the arrest of World Vision employee Mohammad Halabi, who has been accused of funneling millions of dollars in charity funds to Hamas.

In a statement, Hamas Spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri denied all accusations, calling them “baseless and false, and…part of the Zionist occupation’s attempt to worsen the siege on Gaza by persecuting international aid organizations.”
