An NHS doctor has been charged with four counts of inviting support for Hamas, the Metropolitan Police have confirmed.
Dr Rahmeh Aladwan, 31, was apprehended by Met officers at her home in Pilning, South Gloucestershire, on Thursday morning.
Her arrest followed alleged breaches of police bail conditions stemming from previous detentions.
She was subsequently taken to a central London police station where she was formally charged.
The four counts of inviting support for Hamas, a proscribed group, fall under the Terrorism Act 2000 and relate to comments or material posted online between 23 July and 31 December last year.
Additionally, Dr Aladwan faces a charge under the Public Order Act 1986 for publishing or distributing written material and using threatening, abusive, or insulting words with the intent to stir up racial hatred, or being reckless as to whether racial hatred would be stirred up.
The British Palestinian doctor was remanded in custody and is scheduled to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Friday, Scotland Yard said.
