As Israa Jaabis was celebrating her freedom from prison, Isreali forces stormed her home to halt celebrations and to expel a family member.

The army of the only democracy in the Middle East also assaulted media crews and banned them from reporting. Israa Jaabis was freed by Israel under a hostage deal with Hamas.

Her case was described by human rights organisations as a miscarriage of justice.

She had been in prison since 2015 after being convicted of carrying out an attempted car bombing attack after her car caught on fire and left her with severe burn injuries.
