Hava met her comrades from the movement in public gardens. She was engaged in the distribution of forged documents and food coupons. At the end of December 1944 she stayed in an apartment in Købánya, a Budapest suburb. David Gur brought her six suitcases containing equipment for the forging of documents and forged documents. Hava hid them under her bed.
