Ludvinna Jennsen, a 24 year-old Dutch woman, has been sentenced to six years’ imprisonment by a Tel Aviv district court judge. She was found guilty of activity on behalf of an Arab terrorist organization. She was arrested at Ben Gurion Airport on Rosh Hashanah eve last September while on a mission to test the efficiency of the airport’s security measures, apparently in preparation for a terrorist assault. Jennsen was a member of a Dutch extremist organization, Red Aid, which had contacts with Arab terrorist groups.
