What haplogroup did Abraham belong to?

The Israelites were J1, J2, E-M123 etc not V13, they will release aDNA from Bronze Age Israel soon which will give us better insights to their haplogroups

Is the sample from Spain confirmed as having V13 mutation?

It is interesting what will be aDNA from ancient Israel. When the data will be released?

Nothing because he probably didn't exist.

Even fictional characters can have determined hg.

For example, there is a fictional character from literature, let's say fictional
Arnold Copernikus living in the year 2523 from the yet fictional novel: "Trek
to the Andromeda", who is described as descendant of Nicolaus Copernicus.
Then his hg will be certainly R1b, as the needed requirements are describing,
what hg the guy should be. So even if you consider Abram the Abraham to
be a fictional, then you certainly can say what hg supposedly he can be.

And certainly he cannot be E, the same as can't be M or H, or R1.

But he obviously existed, he was a progenitor of the Israelites,
Edomites, Midianites, Nabateans and many others, and he was J1.

If we want to infer then he was probably some variety of J.

Why, just because they say that he was?

The most incredible thing about Abraham isn't his haplogroup, but the fact he was chaldean much before the existence of Chaldea (Chronological errors in Bible).

Just becasue the historical source says, he was.
The same as about Charlemagne, Alexander the Great, Nabuchodonozor aso...

Yes it is confirmed V13. The data will be released either this year or early next year

Noone never said, he was Chaldean.
You are arguing with your own imaginations.
But Chaldeans obviously existed at that time
and if they have something to do with the
Arpachshad, then he was. But the text does
not say it, neither claims. Being from the city
Ur Kaśdim, doesn;t mean being a Chaldean.

Are you claiming Biblical texts who have it in their interest to present Abraham as a real person to justify their religion as a credible historical source akin to Arian and Plutarch?
