Editorial illustration generated by baba News, not a photograph of the event.

An Israeli resident of Jerusalem, in his 40s, has been arrested on suspicion of numerous pedophilia offenses, including rape, possession and distribution of child abuse material, indecent acts against a minor family member, and invasion of privacy. The investigation in Israel led to the arrest of additional suspects in the United States by the FBI.

The suspect, who is married with children, allegedly engaged in conversations with dozens of individuals globally regarding sexual offenses against minors, and even against their own children. In some instances, he reportedly encouraged men and particularly women to sexually abuse children, document these acts, and send them to him for his sexual gratification.

The Cyber Department of the State Prosecutor's Office announced its intention to file an indictment against the Jerusalem resident in court yesterday.
