15-year-old wounded by apparent explosive device in Holon — police

A 15-year-old boy was moderately wounded in a blast in Holon, according to first responders.

Police say the blast was likely caused by an explosive device and that the incident is of a “criminal” rather than nationalist nature. Officers are scanning the area for suspects, police add.

According to Hebrew media, a preliminary investigation has found the explosion likely targeted a member of the Musli crime family and that the wounded boy was an unrelated passerby.
