Tel Aviv District Court sentenced Tali Fahima on Thursday to three years in prison under a plea bargain in which she confessed to illegal contacts with the enemy. Fahima was arrested in 2003 after traveling to the West Bank city of Jenin, befriending the local leader of the Al-Aksa Brigades terrorist group, and vowing to shield him from Israeli troops.
