Exposure: Families of terrorists whose deportation was blocked by legal counsel

Although the law for the deportation of terrorists' families was passed by the Knesset, legal counsel has thwarted its implementation. Channel 14 News has obtained information regarding 150 requests concerning family members of terrorists who have publicly praised or glorified the actions of their relatives. The B'Tsalmo organization has approached the police, but authorities refuse to disclose the names of these families despite significant public interest.

According to the information in our possession, the examined requests highlight a series of family members who, over the years, have published words of praise, support, or identification with the actions of their relatives.

Among the cases examined is the family of Musbah Abu Sabih, who carried out the 2017 Jerusalem attack that resulted in the deaths of police officer Yossi Kirma and Levana Malihi. One of his sisters expressed admiration for Ismail Haniyeh, while another claimed after his death that she would never forgive the police officers who, in her words, "murdered" him.

Another case involves the family of the terrorist who carried out the attack in Hadera, where Border Police fighters Yazan Falah and Shirel Abukarat were murdered. The terrorist's sister reportedly referred to him as a "heroic martyr."

Furthermore, regarding the family of Walid Daqah, who kidnapped and murdered soldier Moshe Tamam, expressions of support have surfaced repeatedly. His wife reportedly expressed support for the events of October 7 and praised terrorists, including Yahya Sinwar, alongside her husband.

In the case of the 2017 Temple Mount attack, which claimed the lives of police officers Haiel Sitawe and Kamil Shanan, family members of the terrorists published messages of pride regarding the attack. Some of these messages included calls for others to follow in their footsteps and defend the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
