Shin Bet says it nabbed Arab Israeli Hamas agent who posed as aid worker
Aya Khatib allegedly diverted hundreds of thousands of shekels in funds earmarked for Gaza needy to terror group to aid in tunnel building

The Shin Bet security service announced on Saturday that it had arrested an Arab Israeli woman who allegedly used her position as a humanitarian worker on behalf of the needy in Gaza to funnel money, supplies and intelligence to the Hamas terror group.

Aya Khatib, 31, from the northern town of Ar’ara, was recruited by a pair of fighters from Hamas’s military wing, the agency said in a statement, though it did not specify the date of her recruitment.
Khatib was arrested last month, but her identity and details of her case had been held until Sunday.

As part of her relationship with the two Hamas agents — Muhammad Falafel and Muhammad Khalawa — Khatib transferred hundreds of thousands of shekels to the terror group “while scamming aid organizations and innocent civilians who donated funds with the aim of reaching patients and the needy” in the Gaza Strip, according to the Shin Bet, which said part of the money went directly toward financing terror activity, such as attack tunnel construction.

In addition, Khatib transferred equipment for use by Hamas’s military wing, the Shin Bet said, without providing further detail.

“The investigation findings indicate that Khatib also provided intelligence to Hamas, including details on the movement of [IDF] troops during one of the fighting rounds with the Gaza Strip,” the Shin Bet added.

Last week, dozens of Arab Israelis demonstrated outside the Haifa Magistrate’s Court in solidarity with Khatib, Ynet reported.

The protesters waved photos of the defendant with her two children and asserted her innocence. A similar demonstration in support of the woman two weeks earlier was attended by Joint List MK Yousef Jabareen.

How crazy is Israel to allow this woman to live in Israel but Chaim is banned.
Chaim needs to do a story about this.

Is this a joke? What's the difference between giving to "Gaza needy" and terrorism?

Not sure if you're sarcastic or serious. If someone comes to Canada or USA and says he's raising money for "Gaza needy", he's obviously raising money for terrorism. Even if you actually give food and supplies to Gaza needy, they'll take the money they would have spent on that and spend it on terrorism. What difference does it make if she gives it for weapons to G-d forbid kill Jews or supplies for the people devoted to killing Jews?

Even they steal the donated food and sell food & medicamentation for the hungry and sick people in order to buy weapons for murder. Plus they steal money directly meant for social projects. It is like with the people in front of the supermarket that ask you for money. Never give it to them, because the schnaps and beer is quickly in the shopping basket. With Hamas it is instead of this weapons, explosives, terrortunnels etc.

Only three groups have reached this level: Hamas, Hisbollah & Iran.
