# US sanctions individuals and charities over alleged Hamas funding

*Treasury says network raised over $2 million for the militant group.*

**Scores for the source reporting** (0-100, assessing the original journalism this article was written from, not this write-up):

- Craft 52 of 100, higher is better. Critic 52: clear facts and specific names, but reads like a press release with minimal reporting.
- Hype 15 of 100, lower is better. Hype 15: measured language, no sensationalism, headline matches article content.

**The short version**

- The US Treasury has sanctioned three individuals and two France-based charities for allegedly raising more than $2 million for Hamas.
- The Treasury stated the network used deceptive charitable fronts and cryptocurrency channels to move funds.
- US authorities reported that $1.5 million of the total was raised after the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack on Israel.
- French authorities arrested three individuals linked to the charities: Faouzi Barika, Amel Oualid, and Nordine Barika.

The United States has imposed sanctions on three individuals and two charities based in France, alleging they were part of a network that raised over $2 million for Hamas. The US Treasury announced the sanctions and stated that six arrests had been made.

According to the US Treasury, the sanctioned network operated a sophisticated, multi-year financing structure that moved more than $2 million to Hamas. The Treasury indicated that the group used deceptive charitable fronts and cryptocurrency to evade detection and adapt its fundraising methods. Saleem Abdallah Saleem al-Zaq was identified as a Hamas member overseeing the financial network and working with the group's media office.

The US Justice Department reported that French authorities arrested Faouzi Barika and Amel Oualid, who are associated with the France-based charities Association Baraka and Ensemble C Mieux. Both charities were also sanctioned. Nordine Barika was also arrested by French authorities in connection with the case. The Treasury stated that Faouzi Barika and Amel Oualid operated from France, running purported charities for humanitarian aid to Gazan civilians. In the United States, three men were arrested for their alleged involvement in funding Hamas through this network.

US authorities stated the network raised more than $2 million between 2020 and 2026. Of this amount, $1.5 million was reportedly raised after the Hamas attack on Israel on October 7, 2023.

## Disagreements

The reports agree that the US sanctioned three individuals and two France-based charities for alleged Hamas funding, and that $1.5 million was raised after the October 7 attack. The US Treasury stated the network raised more than $2 million from 2020 to 2026. The Justice Department reported French authorities arrested Faouzi Barika, Amel Oualid, and Nordine Barika.

## What the coverage left out

None of the left-rated reports mention the three men arrested in the United States for their alleged funding of Hamas through the network.

## Who covered it

Shares of the 32 covering outlets with a published leaning rating:

- Left: 9% (3)
- Centre: 25% (8)
- Right: 66% (21)

40 of 72 covering outlets carried no usable leaning rating and were excluded from those percentages. Coverage measured 2026-10-04T01:21:51.063Z.

**Coverage watch:** developing. Checked 9 times; 2 checks found a material change. Most recently checked 2026-10-04T03:15:19.306Z.

## How the sides framed it

### Left

- Middle East Eye reported that the US sanctioned three individuals and two France-based charities for allegedly raising over $2 million for Hamas. The outlet highlighted the US Treasury's statement that the network used deceptive charitable fronts and cryptocurrency channels to move funds, and that $1.5 million was raised after the October 7, 2023, attack. Middle East Eye also noted the arrests of Faouzi Barika, Amel Oualid, and Nordine Barika by French authorities.

### Centre

- Devdiscourse, France24, Radio France Internationale, Sud Ouest, UPI, Worthy Christian News, ledauphine.com and leprogres.fr all reported that the United States imposed sanctions on individuals and charities linked to a Hamas financing network. The Treasury Department and the Justice Department were identified as the agencies announcing the measures.
- France24 named Saleem Abdallah Saleem al‑Zaq, Faouzi Barika and Amel Ou as sanctioned individuals, while Radio France Internationale noted five people charged in France for moving funds to a pro‑Palestinian group linked to Hamas. Sud Ouest said three French dossiers appear on the U.S. blacklist, and ledauphine.com and leprogres.fr each highlighted two Frenchmen accused of using humanitarian covers to funnel money.
- None of the centre digests mention a response from Hamas or any statement by U.S. officials beyond the agency announcements. They also omit discussion of how the sanctions might affect humanitarian assistance in Gaza or broader regional implications. No outlet provides a cost estimate for the alleged fundraising, aside from UPI’s $2 million figure.

### Right

- Right-rated outlets reported that the US Treasury Department designated individuals and charities for allegedly funding Hamas. Several reports stated that the network raised over $2 million for the group. Some digests mentioned that the operation involved coordinated arrests in the US and France.
- The digests noted that a Hamas military operative and France-based fundraisers were among those sanctioned. One report mentioned a specific individual, Saleem Alzaq, who allegedly boasted about having contacts in New York.
- The digests did not mention the specific amount raised within the United States, nor did they detail the methods used for fundraising, such as cryptocurrency or sham charities.

**Provisional coverage gap:** left. The watch is not closed, so this is not yet a settled blindspot finding.
