A 22-year-old pharmacy student from East Jerusalem, Muhammad Shalabi, has been indicted for allegedly planning to carry out terror attacks against security forces and Jewish civilians. According to the indictment, Shalabi downloaded instructions for creating explosives and toxic substances from Telegram groups associated with terrorist organizations. He reportedly acquired chemicals in Ramallah and stored them in his room, even conducting a chemical experiment in his bathroom to test the materials.
Prosecutors claim that in early 2025, motivated by anger over parking tickets issued to worshippers near a mosque in his neighborhood, Shalabi surveilled law enforcement officers for two months. He allegedly planned to plant an explosive device in a location they frequented, but abandoned this plan when they stopped coming to the area.
The indictment further alleges that Shalabi spoke of carrying out a "serious attack" and expressed a desire to kill "many Jews."
