Palestinian Migrant with Alleged Hamas Ties and Antisemitic Views Enters UK Illegally

The Home Office faces calls for action after a man accused of promoting violence against Jews and supporting Hamas crosses the Channel on a small boat.

• Abu Wadei, a Palestinian migrant and social media influencer, entered the UK illegally via a small boat crossing the Channel last week.
• Wadei, whose real name is reportedly Mosab Al Qasas, has been accused of promoting antisemitic rhetoric and supporting Hamas, a proscribed terrorist organization in the UK.
• The Campaign Against Antisemitism flagged Wadei's past social media posts, which include prayers calling for the deaths of all Jews and images of him posing with firearms.
• Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp has called for Wadei's immediate deportation, citing concerns over public safety and border security.
• The Home Office has declined to comment on the individual case but stated that measures are in place to protect national security.
