Ad Kan is an Israeli Zionist activist organization. It is known for infiltrating Israeli left wing organizations, as well as other forms of protest against organizations which it sees as anti-Israel. The director of Ad Kan is Gilad Ach. Their investigations of Ezra Nawi led to the Uvda Investigation of 2016, due to Ezra Nawi bragging about sending Palestinians who sold land to Jews over to armed Palestinian forces. Footage collected by the organization led to an investigation into Breaking The Silence.
Background
"Ad Kan" is an Israeli non-profit organization which investigates and protests activity which they determine to be detrimental to the image and resilience of the State of Israel. The organization infiltrates those groups which appear to undermine Israeli law, policy or security, in order to collect first-hand information about the groups' activities and methods. Ad Kan then passes the collected information and evidence to the Israeli authorities or to the media.
Activities
In the summer of 2014, Ad Kan captured footage of Ezra Nawi, admitting to luring Palestinian land sellers into deals and then turning them over to Palestinian authorities, which could potentially lead to the death penalty. Which led to his arrest in 2016. In 2018, he was indicted, making him the first Jew to be charged with an Oslo era law against aiding the Palestinian Authority. Their investigations into the organization Breaking the Silence led to a Channel 2 report, as well as the then defense ministerMoshe Ya'alon ordering an investigation into Breaking the Silence for treason. The investigation revealed that Breaking the Silence had tried to obtain classified information about "troop deployment, operational methods and mission procedures." In 2018, the organization put up faux demolition notices on the homes of members of the left-wing NGO HaMoked. The faux demolition notice stated "The demolition of terrorist houses prevents the next attack. Do not help terror and do not lend a hand to the next murder!" and concluded with "demolition order". In December 2018, the organization initiated a complaint against the organization Anarchists Against the Wall, the complaint led to Anarchists Against the Wall facing criminal charges for throwing stones at the security forces with the intent to harm them.
