Prince Mohammed bin Salman doubled down on his position against the Palestinian terror group Hamas on Sunday, after the Kingdom sentenced former Hamas member Mohammed al-Khudari to 15 years in prison on charges of illegally collecting and circulating money to support the terror group. Al-Khudari’s prison sentence was one of 69 handed down to members of Hamas on Sunday, with convicts being given sentences of up to 21 years. No death sentences were given.
The group were arrested three years ago and accused of raising funds on behalf of the designated terror group. Hamas had attempted to mediate with the Saudi Royal family but failed in its attempt, both MBS and King Salman are staunchly opposed to mediating with terror groups.
