As reported by The Times of Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is facing significant political backlash following a report in Yedioth Ahronoth alleging that Israeli intelligence agencies and Egyptian officials repeatedly warned him that Qatari funds were being diverted to support Hamas's military wing. The report claims that despite these warnings, the Israeli government permitted the flow of Qatari money into Gaza under the guise of humanitarian aid. Intelligence assessments cited in the report suggest that these funds became a 'main artery' for the terror group's war machine, with evidence indicating that millions of dollars were regularly siphoned off for military purposes.
