Israeli Man Handed Five-Year Jail Sentence For Aiding Hezbollah

The Haifa District Court sentenced an Israeli-Arab man on Monday to five years in prison for providing Lebanese terrorist group Hezbollah with photos and videos from sites around the country, according to The Times of Israel (TOI).

Mahmoud Jabarin, 37, from the northern town of Umm al-Fahm about 15 kilometers from the biblical site of Megiddo, was convicted under a plea bargain in which he admitted to contacting operatives from Iran’s powerful Lebanese Shi’ite proxy and materially aiding the organization.

Indeed, prosecutors said Jabarin was in contact with two Hezbollah operatives in Lebanon and starting in 2018 provided them with images of the Israel-Lebanese border fence, Hadera power station on Israel’s Mediterranean coast, Megiddo Prison, Petah Tikva in the country’s center and other locations, reported TOI.

The terrorist group published the images on its affiliated social media accounts as part of its propaganda campaign against the Jewish state. It attempted to intimidate by claiming how far it could penetrate into Israeli territory.
