A man is shot dead in Taibe and another is moderately wounded, say police and first responders.

Police say they are opening an investigation into the incident in which two men in their 20s were shot in the Arab city in central Israel.

One of the men was critically wounded in the shooting and was declared dead at Meir Medical Center in Kfar Saba, say police.

The Abraham Initiative monitoring group says today’s incident brings the death toll of Arabs killed in homicides in Israel in 2022 to at least 97.
