    An indictment by the Haifa district attorney’s office was filed Tuesday against an Israeli Arab resident of Umm al-Fahm who was arrested for pledging allegiance to ISIS and plans to carry out terrorist attacks in Israel, the Shin Bet said.

    This individual, named Abdel Rahman Muhammad Ibrahim Mahajana, aged 19, also participated in anti-Israel riots during Operation Wall Guardian three years ago.

    An investigation concluded that Rahman had pledged allegiance to ISIS several times in the past month, and documents dealing with the production of explosives were also found in his possession, the Shin Bet found.

    Among his possessions was a will he had prepared about a year earlier, in which he expressed his desire to be martyred and separated from his family.
