A sister of Hamas deputy leader Saleh al-Arouri, who was allegedly assassinated by Israel in Lebanon last month, is charged in a military court with funneling money to the terror group and incitement.
Dalal al-Arouri, 52, was arrested last month along with her sister Fatima in separate raids in ‘Arura, al-Arouri’s hometown, and al-Bireh, both near Ramallah.
The statement did not say if Fatima was also being charged.
A police statement says she helped transfer money to her brother several times over the past two years and also made several “inciting” statements on October 7, after Hamas carried out its attack on southern Israel that killed some 1,200 people.
