Hamas Fronts Active in Europe

By Matthew Levitt

Recently released documents siezed from the West Bank offices of charities and other organizations affiliated with Hamas highlight the central role Western front organizations play in financing Hamas. While some documents refer to otherwise innocuous donations such as “food packages” and “holiday packages,” many specifically note “The project of assistance to the families of the martyrs, the wounded and those who sustained damage.” Chief among these Western Hamas fronts are the London-based Interpal and the al Aqsa Charitable Foundation with offices throughout Europe.
