The bodies of two young girls were found Tuesday night in a Bedouin village near the southern city of Arad.

The girls, from a nearby Bedouin tribe, were found in a home in al-Pora’a, near the Ran Grove along Route 31 leading to Arad.

They were aged 3 and 5.

Police said an initial examination gave reason to believe the two were murdered. They said the bodies showed signs of violence.

The two were found by first responders in their beds.

Magen David Adom paramedics who responded to the scene declared the two dead.
