Two men were found dead in a car near the southern town of Sderot on Monday, in what police suspect was a double suicide.

The bodies were in an advanced state of decomposition and although a suicide pact seems to be behind the deaths, police have not ruled out a murder-suicide, Ynet reported.

Initial investigations found that the men, said to be in their 40s, died of carbon monoxide inhalation after connecting the exhaust pipe to the interior of the vehicle.

The bodies were taken to the Abu Kabir Forensic Institute for identification and police are trying to contact the families of the dead men, who had apparently been missing for several days.
