Sabah Al-Salem Haniyeh, 57, is accused of sending two messages via the WhatsApp application to dozens of her contacts, including the Hamas leader himself, “praising, encouraging and supporting” the Islamist group’s October 7 attacks on Israeli soil that left almost 1,200 dead and 253 people kidnapped, the Times of Israel reported.
The sister of Ismail Haniyeh was arrested on April 1 in the southern Israeli Bedouin town of Tel Sheva.
According to the indictment, on October 10, Sabah Al-Salem Haniyeh sent a message to two WhatsApp groups, one with 116 members and the other with nine, asking them to spread a prayer that would help “destroy the enemy.”
“Destroy them and destroy their buildings… and hasten their end and cut off their lives and let us deal with their corpses,” the Hamas leader’s sister wrote in one of the messages cited in the indictment.
For that message, and another one sent on October 9, she is charged with two counts of identifying with a terror organization, which carries a three-year prison sentence if convicted, and three counts of incitement to commit an act of terror, which carries a five-year sentence.
The indictment was filed with the Beersheba Magistrate’s Court, and the prosecution is asking the court to order that Sabah Al-Salem Haniyeh remain in custody until the end of the legal proceedings.
Ismail Haniyeh has been living in exile in Qatar for years and heads the Islamist group’s political bureau, in addition to leading its foreign relations.
Following the Hamas attack on October 7, Israel launched a sweeping military operation in the Gaza Strip, which local authorities in the Palestinian enclave controlled by the group say has killed more than 34,000 people, most of them civilians, and plunged the enclave into a severe humanitarian crisis.
Israel, the United States and the European Union classify Hamas as a terrorist organization.
