The sister of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh was released to house arrest on Tuesday, just a week after being charged with incitement to terrorism.
Sabah al-Salem Haniyeh, 57, was charged on April 21 by the Beersheba Magistrate’s Court with two counts of identifying with a terrorist organization and three counts of incitement to terrorism. If convicted, she could face up to eight years in prison.
Details in the indictment, as reported by the Times of Israel, reveal that Haniyeh sent two WhatsApp messages to dozens of her contacts, including her terrorist brother, “praising, encouraging, and supporting” Hamas’s massacre on October 7, when it slaughtered some 1,200 people and kidnapped 253 more back to Gaza.
In one post, she allegedly wrote, “O God, count them in number and kill them and do not leave any of them.” In the second, she encouraged her followers to share the following “prayer”:
“O God, count them by number and kill them, and do not leave even one of them; O God, O God, act for their slaughter and distance us from their evil; O God of the gods, create the reasons. Prepare for us, from our commandments, health; O God, You are great, You are great, they cannot stand before You. God, pray for Mohammed and the nation of Mohammed, let them not stop before You.”
