A Jewish Israeli teenager has been arrested on suspicion of sending bomb threats to Jewish institutions around the world.
The suspect also has US citizenship but has lived in Israel for many years.
The cyberattack unit of Israel's fraud squad arrested the suspect, 18, on Thursday having received information from the FBI and other law enforcement authorities abroad.
The police took computers and other items from the suspect.
Last month, an American former reporter was arrested in the US for his role in a number of bomb threats against Jewish centres, allegedly done as part of an ongoing attempt to shame his former girlfriend.
The Israeli teenager was being detained at Rishon Letzion Magistrate's Court on Thursday.
