Muslim Brotherhood stole half a billion dollars in Gaza donations, Arab sources reveal
While Farghali noted that it is typical of the Muslim Brotherhood to “exploit Gaza and Palestine for money.”
The Muslim Brotherhood allegedly stole half a billion dollars in donations for the Gaza Strip in a single campaign, Egyptian researcher Maher Farghali reported on Sunday.
While Farghali noted that it is typical of the Muslim Brotherhood to “exploit Gaza and Palestine for money,” the difference with this incident is that the theft was condemned by Hamas .
The association Waqf al-Ummah/Ummet Vakfı, founded by the Muslim Brotherhood, is said to have been responsible for taking half a billion, which it raised in a single fundraiser in the name of “Gaza.” Waqf al-Ummah has operated out of Turkey since 2013 and is overseen by religious figures.
Hamas learned of the corruption in January 2024 through one of its younger members, Khaled Mansour, who was investigating Waqf al-Ummah and the associated individuals. Over the last few days, Mansour (@mansourgaza) has been posting repeatedly about the situation, including detailing the figures stolen.
'The biggest theft scandal in the history of the Islamic movement'
“How is it conceivable that many Brotherhood elites and Islamists remain silent about the biggest theft scandal in the history of the Islamic movement of the funds of the people of Gaza,” he wrote yesterday.
