Released for publication today: A Druse resident of the Golan village of Buk’ata has been accused of passing classified information to Syria. The young man had traveled to Syria for studies under an Israeli policy allowing Golan Druse to attend Syrian universities. He admitted that he made contact there with Syrian intelligence agents and passed them information. In accordance with instructions from his Syrian handlers, he transferred such sensitive information as the whereabouts of army positions and bases in the Golan. Arrested in July, he was indicted today in the Nazareth Magistrates Court.
An IDF court indicted three soldiers and one citizen today on charges of selling ammunition to Palestinians. The official indictment stipulates the rarely-used charge of 'aiding the enemy.' The four, including two brothers from Telem, are accused of stealing over 30,000 bullets and solar fuel from the IDF, and even providing their PLO contacts with a stolen car. The sentence for aiding the enemy during wartime can be death.
Another Israeli was arrested today: Arab-Israeli Haled Asor, a 41-year-old taxi driver who drove the two Tisha B'Av terrorists on their fatal mission three weeks ago. The two blew themselves up in Tel Aviv, killing five people, including three foreign workers. The State Prosecution, discounting Asor's claim that the killers threatened to blow up inside his car, took the unusual step of charging him with murder, based on the fact that he well knew his passengers' murderous objectives.
