## Resource

The U.S. Justice Department just hit Hamas with a major digital blow, seizing over $560,000 in crypto funds and taking down key websites and servers used for fundraising and recruitment. Warrants stretching from March 2025 to October 2026 allowed agents to track and freeze crypto flowing through encrypted chats and donation sites. In July and August 2026, they shut down Alqassam.ps’s infrastructure, also uncovering thousands of potential donors and recruits. This is a powerful strike against Hamas’s online operations — showing how the FBI is aggressively targeting digital funding channels to disrupt their global network.
