Eisenkot urges respect for Israel’s Arab minority after Netanyahu attacks
Caretaker premier Benjamin Netanyahu and his allies have repeatedly criticised leaders of Arab parties for refusing to describe Hamas as a 'terror group'.
The Northern District Attorney's Office plans to file an indictment on Friday against a Yafia resident for allegedly publishing inciting content on social media. This includes praising Hamas leaders Yahya Sinwar and Ahmed Yassin, as well as making calls for continued fighting and jihad against Israel. The investigation began after Israel Police reported suspicious posts on the suspect's personal social media account.
He was arrested on October 26, suspected of incitement to racism, publishing a direct call to commit terrorism, and other offenses. The posts included tributes to Sinwar and Yassin, along with support for terror attacks against civilians and security forces. In one instance, the suspect shared a Hamas post following the deaths of two Israeli soldiers during a ceasefire violation, posting it on the anniversary of their deaths. The court has extended the suspect's detention multiple times since his arrest.
