The Shin Bet thwarted plans to plan and carry out attacks in Israel led by Salah Sweti, known as "Abu Hassan", who lives in Lebanon, was a former Hezbollah operative and has ties to the Yash and the Gaza Strip.
As part of this, two residents of East Jerusalem with blue ID cards who were in contact with him were arrested - through them he tried to promote his activities.
The two, under his guidance, carried out intelligence gathering missions and photographed places in Israeli territories, with an emphasis on Jerusalem, in order to promote terrorist attacks.
The Shin Bet's investigation revealed that "Abu Hasan" locates the potential operatives from Yash and East Jerusalem through social networks, with an emphasis on the Tik-Tok application.
The two detainees were asked to photograph places in Jerusalem,
At the beginning of the relationship, "Abu Hasan" concentrates on the personal aspect and general discourse, such as the situation in Jerusalem and conflicts between Jews and Arabs.
Later, and as part of the recruitment process that characterizes Hezbollah, "Abu Hassan" moves to lead the conversation on Telegram.
There he forwards seemingly innocent requests to carry out tasks, such as taking photos and videos in Israel as an optional target for an attack.
Over time and the strengthening of the relationship between the parties, "Abu Hasan" instructs his operatives to initiate terrorist attacks against Israeli citizens, while ignoring the damage that will be caused to the operatives and their families.
The General Security Service takes a serious view of attempts to harness Israeli residents to terrorist activities and calls for vigilance online in light of the threat posed by various terrorist elements on social networks.
