Settler Sentenced to 13 Years for Killing Aisha Rabi in 2018
An Israeli settler has been sentenced to 13 years in prison for his role in the 2018 death of Aisha Rabi, a Palestinian teenager. The sentence was handed down by the Lod District Court.
Rabi, 17, was killed in October 2018 when a rock was thrown at her family's car as they drove on Route 60 in the West Bank. Her father, who was driving, lost control of the vehicle and crashed. The court found the settler guilty of causing death by negligence.
The sentencing comes after a lengthy legal process. The settler, whose identity has been suppressed by the court, was initially arrested shortly after the incident. The conviction marks a significant moment in holding settlers accountable for violence in the West Bank.
