Yousef Ghazawi, an 18-year-old resident of I'billin in northern Israel, has been indicted for allegedly attempting to purchase an M16 rifle and planning a terrorist attack against an Israeli town. The indictment was announced by the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) and the Israel Police. Ghazawi was arrested during a joint operation by the Galilee unit of the Israel Police and the Shin Bet. Investigators found that he had hidden various types of ammunition in his home and had researched weapons use and explosive device preparation. Ghazawi reportedly expressed support for Hamas and aimed to conduct attacks on its behalf. The Haifa District Attorney's Office has filed the indictment, requesting that Ghazawi remain in custody until the conclusion of legal proceedings. This case highlights growing concerns among Israeli security agencies about citizens being recruited for terrorist activities, especially following recent violent incidents and the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
