Farwanah — was considered to be the main man behind the fund raising and currency exchange for the Hamas group.

“Farwanah and his brother used to transfer the funds on which Hamas is heavily dependent. The money exchanges that the brothers received were from Iran and other Arab countries,” a joint statement of Israeli security forces said.
