The Jerusalem Magistrate\u2019s Court on Monday sentenced Tasnim Odeh to 17 months in prison after convicting her of incitement to terrorism and identification with a terror organization (Hamas), following a series of posts she published on social media platforms TikTok and Facebook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Odeh, 23, a resident of the Shuafat refugee camp in East Jerusalem and a law student at Al-Quds University, is the daughter of Barakat Musa Odeh, a militant who was killed in October 2022 during a vehicular ramming attack at the Nabi Musa junction in the Jordan Valley, in which five Israeli soldiers were injured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As Odeh has been in custody since December 2024, she is expected to be released from prison on April 5, 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The indictment filed by the Jerusalem District Prosecutor\u2019s Office detailed multiple instances in which Odeh praised militants and expressed support for terrorist acts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In July 2024, shortly after the killing of Ismail Haniyeh in Iran, who headed the Hamas organization, Odeh published a Facebook post stating: \u201cWe pledge allegiance to you, Abu Ibrahim, we pledge allegiance to you.\u201d The post included images of Haniyeh and Yahya Sinwar and expressed loyalty to them as leaders of Hamas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In September 2024, following the death of Mohammed Zubeidi, the son of militant Zakaria Zubeidi \u2013 one of the security prisoners who escaped from Gilboa Prison through a tunnel \u2013 Odeh published a TikTok post in which she said: \u201cToday I turn my eyes to the father of the martyr, who spent and devoted his life to imprisonment.\u201d The post included images of Zakaria Zubeidi and praised him as a \u201cmartyr.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One day after the killing of Yahya Sinwar in October 2024, Odeh published another TikTok post stating: \u201cEven if he ascended to the heavens, he achieved what he aspired to and worked for.\u201d In an additional quote in the same post, she wrote: \u201cGlory belongs to those who die amid gunfire. Shame will come to every despairing and doubtful person.\u201d The post praised Sinwar and glorified death \u201cfor the cause.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In February 2025, Interior Minister Moshe Arbel announced his intention to expel Tasnim Odeh from Jerusalem due to her incitement and identification with terror organizations, subject to a formal hearing. If the expulsion proceeds, Odeh would be prevented from returning to the streets of Jerusalem as early as April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
