Former Israeli Premier League player Ali Khatib was arrested on suspicion of threatening a young woman by sending her menacing messages. The police sought to extend his detention for seven days, but Magistrate Judge Zvi Shreier of the Haifa Magistrate's Court denied the request, ordering Khatib to be placed under house arrest for four days.

Khatib, who previously played for Maccabi Netanya and Hapoel Haifa and currently plays for Sderot, is accused of sending threatening written messages starting October 16. A police representative, Sergeant Major Firas Issat, stated during the hearing that the threats were serious. Although only one complaint was filed, the police believe the threatening messages were sent to multiple individuals.
