A military court in Lebanon on Monday sentenced a political activist to three years of hard labor for collaborating with Israel, Lebanon's state-run news agency reported.
The National News Agency said Kinda El-Khatib was sentenced for allegedly visiting Israel, contacting Israeli agents and providing them with security information.
Lebanon and Israel are in a state of war and each bans its citizens from visiting the other country.
El-Khatib was detained in June with her brother, who was later released. According to local media reports, she had visited Israel by crossing from Jordan.
El-Khatib had been active on social media, where she harshly criticized Lebanon's militant Hezbollah group and its strong ally, President Michel Aoun. Hezbollah and Israel fought a monthlong war in 2006.
