According to the agency, the funds that had been ostensibly appropriated for humanitarian purposes were illegally transferred to organizations and institutions run by the terrorist group in Palestinian cities.
The scheme was carried out by deceiving the NGO groups in Europe by showcasing fake projects and presenting falsified documents and invoices, as well as corrupting the bidding of various projects and using forged banking stamps.
The funds were also used to pay for the families of terrorists and the salaries of activists in the organization who planned to carry out attacks and promote terrorist ideology.
