The US Department of Justice has charged a New York City housewife with providing material support to the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) — a US-designated foreign terrorist organization — after she donated approximately $30,000 in cryptocurrency to the group. According to the indictment, the defendant also wrote online: "I wish every day was October 7," referring to the Hamas-led massacre in southern Israel that killed some 1,200 people. The case marks the latest in a series of US prosecutions of individuals accused of funneling funds to Iran-backed terror groups. Earlier this month, a San Diego man was charged with raising $600,000 for Hamas (The Zioneer, June 17). The charge sheet did not name the defendant; further details, including her court appearance date, have not yet been released.
