Israeli security forces, including the Israel Police and the National Bureau for Counter-Terror Financing, confiscated over $33,000 in cash, vehicles, and jewelry from the East Jerusalem homes of released terrorists and their families on Wednesday. This operation was conducted under seizure orders issued by Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz, targeting payments made by the Palestinian Authority (PA) to Israeli citizens and residents involved in terrorism. The sanctions are part of a broader economic campaign against terrorist organizations and their funding. Among those targeted were Muhammad Abd al-Rahman Abbad, involved in a 2002 attempted suicide bombing, and Ahed Faiz Ali al-Natsheh, a Hamas operative linked to a 2001 attack in Jerusalem. The PA's "Martyrs Fund" provides stipends to imprisoned terrorists, families of slain terrorists, and released prisoners, a program that has faced international pressure.
