- He is banned from certain towns, travel abroad, messaging apps, internet, and drone use.
- Agbaria Hariri is a senior figure in the Hariri crime group involved in violent blood feuds.

- Defense lawyers disputed the intelligence and legality of the restrictions, but the court approved them.
The Israeli police have obtained an unprecedented administrative restraining order against 22-year-old Mohad Agbaria Hariri, a key figure in the Hariri crime organization, considered one of the most dangerous young criminals in Israel. The court-approved restrictions include house arrest, bans from entering certain Triangle region towns (Jaljulia, Bara, and Kafr Qasim) for 60 days, a 45-day travel ban abroad with passport surrender, prohibition on using messaging apps and internet access, and a complete ban on operating drones, which police say could be used as weapons.
According to police intelligence reports, Agbaria Hariri holds a senior "trusted position" within the organization, distributing orders and traveling abroad to meet with top leaders. He is involved in violent blood feuds and has a history of weapons offenses and attempted attacks, including a suspected shooting at the head of Jaljulia's local council. Despite extensive surveillance and intelligence gathering, authorities lacked sufficient evidence for formal indictment, prompting the use of administrative orders to restrict his activities.
Agbaria Hariri is the son of Yehia Hariri, a founding member of the crime group who was murdered in 2004 by rival factions. His family background has elevated his status and made him a target for assassination. Police warn of his high danger level, noting his loyalty to multiple senior figures in the organization and his active role in escalating violent conflicts that endanger both rivals and innocent civilians.
Defense attorneys challenged the intelligence reliability, citing a recent reconciliation between rival factions and a calmer security situation, arguing the restrictions were unnecessary and infringed on civil liberties. However, the Central District Court in Lod upheld the police request, emphasizing the threat he poses and the need to prevent further criminal acts. The court allowed Agbaria Hariri to have a designated person assist with grocery shopping under police coordination.
This case marks the first time such extensive administrative restrictions have been imposed on a young criminal in Israel, reflecting the authorities' efforts to curb organized crime activities when criminal prosecution is hindered by fear and lack of direct evidence.
