Ibiza arrest: US multimillionaire faces extradition

A July arrest on Ibiza, in Spain’s Balearic Islands, now leaves US multimillionaire Fergie Chambers facing extradition to the United States. On 10 November 2026, prosecutors at Spain’s National Court back the US request, alleging he funded actions against an Israeli defence firm and made transfers intended to benefit Hamas. Chambers remains on remand at Aranjuez prison in the Madrid region.

Allegations over actions against Elbit

The US Department of Justice accuses Chambers of international money laundering. US authorities also allege that he stirred up disorder targeting Elbit, an Israeli defence company that supplies equipment to Israel’s military.

Spanish prosecutors say Chambers funded Unity of Fields, formerly known as Palestina Action U.S. They allege he bought padlocks, chains and flexible cables used in an attack on Elbit property. The next day, several people damaged the building, painted slogans on it and chained themselves to its doors, according to the prosecutors. The incident took place in October 2023. Bank records, they say, also show that Chambers paid for smoke canisters and paint, as well as bail for people arrested in connection with the actions.

Ten transfers to a bank in Tunisia

Between March 2024 and April 2025, Chambers made ten transfers to a bank in Tunisia, prosecutors say. They allege he intended the money to support further illegal activity and violent acts that would benefit Hamas, including through purported charities.

Prosecutors also cite a $20,000 payment to Alianza por la Justicia Global, which sponsors groups including Samidoun. They say Chambers had previously given Samidoun $40,000. The prosecutors want the extradition review concluded and the US request granted.
