Teen arrested on suspicion of planning terror attack after swearing allegiance to ISIS
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GooglePolice and Shin Bet agents say they arrested a 17-year-old from the coastal Arab town of Jisr az-Zarqa earlier this month on suspicion he had been planning a terror attack on behalf of ISIS.
The agencies say in a joint statement that the youth had sworn allegiance to the Islamic State terror group several times in recent months and had been plotting an attack in north-central Israel.
Security forces also discovered documents related to manufacturing explosives in his possession, the statement continues.
The Haifa District Attorney’s Office filed an indictment against the suspect after police completed their investigation, and requested the extension of his detention until the end of court proceedings.
