for the reconstruction of homes in Gaza
"The internet site 'Islam Online Net' reported that "a cell of Egyptian intelligence conducted a chase after Hamas operatives in the streets of Cairo". The report went on to say that "the cell stopped the car in which the Hamas members were riding and confiscated the money found in their possession – money intended for aid to the needy following the recent Israeli war in Gaza". The report said the amount confiscated was $7 million, meant for the reconstruction of homes lost during the fighting in Gaza. Egypt's Interior Ministry would neither confirm nor deny the arrests.""
