Saudi Daily Says Hizbullah Opened Hamas Bank Accounts in Algeria

Hizbullah has opened bank accounts for Hamas leaders in Algeria, a Saudi newspaper reported on Sunday.

“The money that has been injected into these accounts was transferred from local banks in Algeria and from accounts belonging to individuals who are loyal to Hizbullah and are residents of the Algerian capital,” the Okaz daily quoted a source close to Hamas as saying.

“The new bank accounts were opened under the name of Hamas leader Sami Abu Zahri, who had moved from the Gaza Strip to Cairo before moving to live in Algeria last month,” the source added.
