Ben Whitley – WPA Pool/Getty ImagesItalian authorities have arrested nine people on suspicion of financing Hamas through a network of charities operating in Italy, prosecutors and police said on Dec. 27, in an investigation that uncovered what officials described as a large-scale diversion of donations meant to help the Palestinian people but that instead flowed to terrorists.Prosecutors in the northern city of Genoa said the suspects are accused of “belonging to and having financed” Hamas.
