Israeli police say they have arrested a relative of a senior member of the Islamist Hamas for suspected security violations. According to Israeli media reports, she is a sister of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, who lives in Qatar.
The 57-year-old, who was arrested in Tel Sheva in southern Israel, is suspected of “maintaining contact with Hamas activists,” police said in a statement. She identifies with a terrorist organization and is accused of inciting and supporting terrorist attacks in Israel.
In court on Monday
“During the raid on her home, security forces found documents, media devices, telephones, as well as other findings and evidence linking her to serious security violations against the State of Israel,” the report said. She has to appear in court on Monday.
Israeli media had reported in the past that three of Haniyeh’s sisters married Bedouins in southern Israel and became Israeli citizens.
