Six Israeli Arabs - four of them school teachers - have been charged with supporting Daesh.

The men are accused of promoting jihad in their classes, according to the Israeli security agency Shin Bet. The four teachers worked in a school in southern Israel.

A Shin Bet spokesman, who made the announcement on Monday, said: "The vast majority of the Arab public in Israel opposes Daesh to the point of disgust with the organisation."
