Shin Bet finds that Gazans working legally in Israel before Oct. 7 did not provide intel to Hamas

After a months-long investigation, the Shin Bet has concluded that Palestinians who entered Israel from Gaza for work prior to the October 7 Hamas terror assault did not provide Hamas with intelligence information that would assist with the assault, Channel 12 reports.

According to the report, the Shin Bet has investigated some 3,000 Gazans who had permits to work in Israel to assess if they had provided the terror group with information about the communities they were planning on attacking and concluded that no such concerted effort had been made.

“There’s no concern that the people who were investigated passed information to Hamas as a result of their work in Israel,” Channel 12 states.
