Rabayev served as a driver at an IDF base in the south of the country in July. Rabayev allegedly delivered the requested information, which Jribea then passed on to others, though authorities have not identified the final recipient, which could have been jihadist groups such as Hezbollah or Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference.
