Hamas' Deceptive Tactics: Using Israelis to Transfer Weapons
Originally Published 1 year ago — by The Jerusalem Post
An IDF operation uncovered a Hamas terrorist cell that had been using Jewish-Israeli citizens, mainly in the Jerusalem area, to unknowingly transfer weapons and explosives. The citizens were deceived into believing they were working for Jews living overseas. The operation seized electronics that helped the Shin Bet expose the scheme, revealing that Hamas used fake online identities to communicate with the unwitting agents. Israeli intelligence warned citizens not to take instructions from unidentified persons online and emphasized the importance of vigilance.
