Idier Wahid Taysir Hayb (or al-Heib) (Arabic: تيسير الهيب; Hebrew: תייסיר אל-היב) is a Bedouin Israeli sergeant who shot International Solidarity Movement civilian activist Tom Hurndall, while on duty in Gaza on April 11, 2003. Hurndall died in January 2004, after a nine-month coma. Hayb was sentenced to eight years for manslaughter.[1][2][3][4] His sentence was reduced in July 2010, and he was released after only five years.[5] He is the brother of Amira al Hayb, the first Bedouin Israeli female to join the IDF.
