Al-Khair Foundation has categorically denied allegations from UK Lawyers for Israel that it has ties with Hamas, following an investigation initiated by the group. The British charity responded to the complaint by stating it has no connection with Hamas or any proscribed entity. Al-Khair has appointed an independent consultant to investigate the claims and present its side of the story.

The Charity Commission and the Department for Education are also seeking information from the charity's schools, which they claim are operationally separate from its humanitarian work. UK Lawyers for Israel, an advocacy group, has been active in discrediting and pressuring individuals and organizations critical of Israeli policies, creating a "chilling environment" for Palestine solidarity activism in Britain.
