Israeli police arrested two Palestinians on Thursday morning on suspicion of incitement on social media, according to a report by ynet. The suspects allegedly shared posts that referred to 'Zionist Arabs' as 'the cancer of this time.' The arrests were carried out by police, with the suspects taken for questioning.
The Zioneer has reported on several similar arrests for online incitement in recent months, including a July 7 arrest of two Palestinians accused of encouraging attacks and glorifying the October 7 massacre, and a July 9 arrest of a Palestinian for incitement and terror encouragement. These cases reflect an ongoing effort by Israeli authorities and the Shin Bet to monitor and counter online hate speech and incitement to violence.
