Former Joint List MK Heba Yazbak was questioned by police this morning on suspicion of incitement and identification with terrorist acts.

The suspicions are related to Facebook posts made by Yazbak between 2013 and 2017, before she was an MK.

In one post, Yazbak uploaded a photo of terrorist Samir Kuntar and called him a martyr. In another, she praised the actions of terrorist Dalal Mughrabi.
