UK Warns Chabad Over Fundraising for Israeli Army
Charity Law Violation Sparks Controversy The UK government has issued an official warning to the Chabad organization for illegally fundraising on behalf of the Israeli army. The organization’s branch in London and Essex raised £2,280, prompting condemnation from the Charity Commission.
What Happened?
An investigation revealed that the funds collected by Chabad were intended for Israeli soldiers. The UK Charity Commission emphasized that such actions violate national laws.
"Charitable organizations are prohibited from raising funds for foreign armies. This is illegal and unacceptable," stated a Commission representative.
Government Response
The Charity Commission has launched an investigation into the activities of Chabad’s branch. The organization was warned to cease such activities immediately. Authorities stressed that incidents like this undermine public trust in charitable organizations.
Who Are Chabad?
Chabad is an international religious movement associated with Judaism. However, its activities often attract criticism. The movement has been accused of supporting Israeli occupation policies.
Previous incidents include:
- Chabad announced plans to establish a center in the occupied Golan Heights.

Conclusion
The Chabad controversy raises important questions about the transparency and legality of charity operations. The UK authorities are determined to clamp down on violations to prevent charitable organizations from being used for political or military purposes.
