on Sunday night on suspicion of issuing fake threats of imminent terror attacks, that were supposedly to be perpetrated against members of the Israeli security forces.

The woman, from the Anata village northwest of Jerusalem, is said to be in her 30s.

Recently, Israel’s emergency services line, 100, received dozens of such threats in which the woman can be heard issuing a warning in Arabic of an impending attack against security personnel, particularly in eastern Jerusalem.

After every phone call, local security crews were put into action and forced to conduct search and scour operations until it became clear that the threats could not be authenticated.

Following an analysis of the conversations, police opened an investigation to identify and locate the the individual behind the bogus calls, who, after being arrested, confessed to the accusations levelled against her.

The courts extended her arrest of the suspected perpetrator until Wednesday and determined that she would be sent for psychiatric observation.

According to police, the main focus was being placed on protecting residents and visitors in Jerusalem, and that preventative measures were taken to thwart any possible intention to carry out a terror attack.

"Whenever any information is reported, the entire apparatus of the security forces are put into immediate action,’ the police said. "Such harassment, which leads to the activation of forces for no reason, harms the normal life of the city, but these incidents will be dealt with with a heavy hand."
