Woman Arrested in Northern Israel Over False Terror Report Amid Divorce Dispute

Police arrested a woman who claimed her husband was planning an attack, alongside her husband over threats, after checks ruled out security motives.


Police arrested a woman in northern Israel on suspicion of fabricating a report that her husband was planning a terror attack, amid an ongoing divorce dispute, Makor Rishon and The Jerusalem Post reported. Simultaneously, the husband was detained on suspicion of making threats.

According to police, extensive checks completely ruled out any security-related intent on the husband's part, raising a clear suspicion that the woman's warning of an impending attack was entirely false.

Further details regarding the identities of the couple and the legal proceedings against them have not yet been released.
