Israeli authorities have reportedly frozen cryptocurrency accounts belonging to the Hamas group with the help of Binance. The funds seized from these accounts have been transferred to the state treasury, although the exact amount has not been disclosed. This is not the first time Israeli authorities have taken action against Hamas-related crypto accounts, as they previously seized 190 Binance accounts in April. The recent move comes in response to an attack by Hamas on Israel, which resulted in casualties and damage. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has likened the group’s actions to those of ISIS. The US Commodities Futures and Trading Commission has also charged Binance executives with involvement in transactions associated with Hamas. Binance has yet to comment on its role in the seizure.
