U.S. Seizes $560,000 in Hamas Cryptocurrency, Takes Control of Al‑Qassam Domains

The Justice Department and FBI announced that they have seized $560,000 in cryptocurrency linked to Hamas’s Al‑Qassam Brigades. The operation also took control of the organization’s fundraising and recruitment websites, servers, and associated cryptocurrency addresses. By disrupting these digital platforms, the U. S. authorities aim to cut off a key source of revenue and communication for the militant group. The seizure represents a significant step in the broader effort to limit Hamas’s ability to raise funds and coordinate activities online.
