Israeli court seeks 50-month prison for Sheikh Khatib
An Israeli court issued a forthcoming verdict against the Vice President of the Islamic Movement, Sheikh Kamel Khatib, after finding him guilty of two charges: "incitement to violence" and "incitement to terrorism," related to his posts and speech during the events of the May 2021 Jerusalem Ramadan uprising, which included attacks on Al-Aqsa Mosque and incidents in the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood. The court acquitted him of the charge of collaborating with a terrorist organization at an earlier stage. However, it convicted him of incitement. The prosecution demanded a prison sentence ranging from 40 to 50 months, while the defense argued that the case is political and aims to criminalize the Palestinian narrative, pointing out procedural errors and politicization throughout the case, which has lasted over five years.
