The Israeli security services managed to successfully retrieve sensitive data from under the Iranian noses. Now In a recent report, it was stated that a Hamas naval commander fled the coastal enclave with “classified materials” and is suspected of “collaborating” with Israel.
The report
added that the individual is suspected of collaborating with Israel and
referred to him as the second senior Hamas operative suspected of cooperating
with Israel in recent days.
The report
cited an Arabic news site called Amad,
which referred to the escaped Hamas official as the head of the Izz ad-Din
al-Qassam Brigades’ naval commando unit. Amad reported that the commander left
the Gaza Strip in an Israeli boat, carrying cash and surveillance technology,
in addition to the laptop.
In the wake of
this incident, Hamas reportedly embarked on a wave of arrests, snatching up
dozens of suspects and seizing $500,000 in cash, in addition to communications
equipment. The investigation appears to point to the potential existence of
other senior Hamas commanders involved in espionage activities with Israel.
The report
also discussed another Hamas operative accused of collaborating with Israel,
dubbed “Mahmoud,” who allegedly played a leading role in Hamas’ communications
networks and in training terrorists in their use. It is claimed “Mahmoud” began
his relationship with Israeli operatives over a decade ago, with his role
recently exposed due to a botched currency hand-off with his brother, who was
detained by the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades.
The report
from Gaza arrived about a week after an article in a Hezbollah-linked newspaper
in Lebanon called Al-Ahbar claimed
that Hamas had discovered a “plot by Israeli intelligence services” to strike
Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip.
