Hamas claims it captured "one of the most dangerous collaborators with Israel," a person that the terror group said has been working with Israeli spy agencies for at least 15 years, according to reports from the Palestinian Ma’an News Agency.

Hamas forces in the Gaza Strip reportedly captured the unnamed individual Tuesday. The terror group said the man has been working with Israel’s Shin Bet security agency.

Ma’an reported:

The unidentified man was one of the most "active" members of providing intelligence to Israeli forces, and allegedly confessed to a number of incidents.

The officials said that the man had been distributing money via Israel's security services to other collaborators in the Gaza Strip.

He also took part in several operations to kill high-ranking Hamas officials during Israeli military attacks on the coastal enclave in 2012 and 2014, and aided Israel in locating Hamas' arms caches.

The man is also accused of locating dozens of homes targeted during Israel's devastating military offensive last summer, and gave names to Israel of people who could be blackmailed in return for working with the Shin Bet.
