Western countries ought to do a lot more to prevent this kind of funding of coward mass killers like Hamas!
"Italian police have arrested nine people accused of raising around €7m (£6m) for Hamas over more than two years.
The money was ostensibly collected as humanitarian aid for Palestinian civilians, a police statement said, but was instead sent to the militant group via a "complex fundraising system".
Alongside the arrests, police say they have seized more than €8m (£7m) in assets as part of the investigation.
Police say the suspects are "specifically accused of carrying out financing operations believed to have contributed to terrorist activities". ...
"The suspects collected donations intended for the civilian population of Gaza, however, it emerged that over 71% of these funds were diverted to Hamas's coffers to finance its military wing and support the families of suicide bombers or those detained for terrorism," the police statement says. ..."
