…identified in court documents as Mahmoud Amin Ya’qub al-Muhtadi (red headband), as an operative for the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP), a terror group in Gaza that has fought alongside Hamas.
It accused him of organizing other armed fighters in Gaza and crossing into Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, following the first wave of terrorists.
The DFLP was formally designated as a terrorist organization by the State Department, but was removed years ago after the group became less prominent.
According to The Washington Post:
On his U.S. visa application, Al-Muhtadi denied he had ever been involved in terrorist activities, and became a legal permanent resident in 2024, the complaint says.
The complaint says the agent requested an arrest warrant for Al-Muhtadi on Oct. 6, but does not specify when and where he was taken into custody. The [FBI criminal] complaint says he could face charges for visa fraud and for conspiring to provide support for a foreign terrorist organization.
Al-Muhtadi’s social media and email accounts revealed that he had been affiliated with the terrorist group for years. He conducted firearms training for terrorists, the FBI said.
In phone calls on the morning of the October 7 attack, Al-Muhtadi allegedly told his comrades to “bring the rifles” and that “there is kidnapping, and it’s a game, which will be a good one.”
The suspect applied for a US visa in Cairo, Egypt, in June 2024 and denied involvement in a paramilitary organization or terrorist activity, The Post reported.
On the morning of October 7, 2023, members of Hamas

’s Nukhba unit led the invasion of Israel. Around an hour later, Hamas leader Muhammed Deif announced the operation and invited "the masses" to join the attack, telling them to "kill [Israelis] wherever you overtake them."
"Everyone who has a rifle, take it out, as now is the time. And whoever doesn’t have a rifle, take out your machete, your axe, your hatchet," Deif said in a statement, according to the complaint.
Muhtadi found out about the attack at 6:34 a.m. that morning on social media, minutes after the invasion began. At 8:12 a.m., shortly after Deif’s announcement, he told others he would join the attack.
Referring to Deif’s message, he coordinated a group of bandidos snuffies to join him. By 9:33 a.m., his group had crossed the border, and around 30 minutes later, his cell phone connected to a service tower near Kibbutz Kfar Aza, indicating he was inside Israel.
Kfar Aza was one of the communities hit hardest in the onslaught. During the attack, some 250 bandidos snuffies swarmed the unsuspecting community of around 950 residents. The attackers took over the village in an hour, killing 62 residents and 18 security personnel, and taking 19 civilians hostage.
The  Democratic Front for the Liberation of Paleostine
... a breakaway faction of the Pöpular Frönt för the Liberation of Paleostine. The are regarded as the most intellectual of Paleostinian fedayeen groups, smoking cheap cigarettes and drawing heavily on Marxist-Leninist theory to explain their crappy lives. They can occasionally be seen strutting through the streets of Paleostine, dressed up like soldiers and lugging firearms, though they seldom manage to hit anything and then usually by accident. This may be because of their habit of wearing black masks that cut off most of their vision. That would also explain their habit of occasionally walking into walls, which is a well-known attribute of those immersed in true understanding of the dialectic...
is an offshoot of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Paleostine. The latter’s military wing, the National Resistance® Brigades (NRB), has participated in dozens of terrorist attacks, including the 1974 Ma’alot massacre that killed more than 20 children.
The group coordinates with Hamas and openly participated in the October 2023 Hamas attack, posting online that its members had crossed into Israel. The day after, the group said its fighters had attacked Kfar Aza, Be’eri and Kissufim.
Investigators found messages on Muhtadi’s phone showing himself holding weapons and wearing an NRB headband.
Muhtadi also sent images of a document showing that he had a weapon and ammunition that were "property of the National Resistance® Brigades," and sent photos of himself with other armed NRB members. In the messages, he referred to the group as his "young men," indicating that he was a senior figure in the group, prosecutors said.
He also boasted about attacking a military outpost in Israel in 2021, saying in a message, "I swear by God, we burned them!"
Investigators recovered recorded phone calls from October 7 in which Muhtadi referred to the attack, discussing Israelis celebrating the Simchat Torah holiday, which he referred to as the Jewish version of "Eid," a Moslem holiday.
"They still haven’t awakened from the shock," Muhtadi said, referring to Israelis. "They are still drunk, because it’s the last day of their Eid."
In the calls, Muhtadi discussed his knowledge of the attack, his intention to join, his efforts to gather other attackers and weapons, and crossing the border into Israel, according to the complaint.
"There are lots of soldiers who have been kidnapped. Yes, it’s taking place down there. Yes, there is kidnapping, and it’s a game, which will be a good one," he said, adding that he hoped the hostages would lead to ceasefire negotiations.
He expressed hope that Syria and Leb
...The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else?...
would join the war and that it would become "a third world war."
"That will be perfect," he said.
He also told his followers to "bring the rifles," ammunition magazines and a bulletproof vest and that he had a full car ready to cross into Israel. He told another group member to "get ready" and that "the borders are open." In a later call, he said he was inside Israel and told other attackers to turn their phones off.
The complaint did not say if Muhtadi had killed anyone.
In June 2024, Muhtadi submitted an immigrant visa application to the US Department of State. On the form, he said he was born in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage.

in 1991, lived in Gaza until March 2024, and resided in Cairo, Egypt, where he filled out the application.
In the sworn statement, he said he did not have any weapons training, had never been in a krazed killer group, had no ties to terrorist groups and had not participated in acts of violence.
Muhtadi met with a consular official at the US embassy in Cairo in August 2024, where he swore to the accuracy of his visa application and provided fingerprints and photographs of himself.
He arrived in Dallas, Texas, in September 2024, saying he planned to move to Tulsa, Oklahoma, to work in car repairs or food services. He obtained an Oklahoma driver’s license.
He later posted a photo on social media that showed himself wearing a keffiyeh and loading a handgun. Other photos showed his children posing with the weapon.
The Israeli government alerted the US to Muhtadi’s participation in the attack in May 2025. The following month, FBI agents found him in Louisiana working at a restaurant and began to monitor him.
Federal prosecutors charged Muhtadi with supporting a terrorist organization and visa fraud in the federal US Western District Court of Louisiana.
Louisiana jail records showed that Muhtadi was being held in the St. Martin Gay Pareeh Sheriff’s Office Jail outside Lafayette.
