Israel takes hard line against terrorists, allowing deportation of family members
Fox News
Israel's Knesset passed a law to deport relatives of terrorists, including Israeli citizens, with a 61-41 vote early Thursday. It will likely be challenged in court.
Family members who had advance knowledge of an attack and failed to report it to police or "expressed support or identification with an act of terrorism or published words of praise, sympathy or encouragement for an act of terrorism or a terrorist organization" would be subject to the law, The Times of Israel reports.
They would be deported for a period of seven to 20 years. The Israel-Hamas war is still raging in Gaza, where tens of thousands have been killed and most of the population has been internally displaced, often multiple times.
