Thanks to Rafi for sending me this blurb from 24 Dakot, a local offshoot of Yediot.

The sensationalist headline reads:

Today: The Children against “Mother Taliban”

Four of 12 children of the Beit Shemesh woman nicknamed “Mother Taliban” are expected to testify today at the trial in which she is accused of serial abuse and neglect of her children. The letter of indictment states that for nine years, the parents beat their children and whipped them with belts and cords. They even locked the children out of the house when they did not act according to their wishes. In one case detailed in the indictment, the mother extinguished a match on her son’s chest.
