A 54-year-old man has been shot to death in the northern town of Tuba Zangaria, marking the 176th violent killing in the Arab community this year.
The man, who is not named, died after being brought to a hospital in Safed in critical condition. Police are investigating.
In a separate incident, a man in Lod was shot and brought to a hospital with medium to severe injuries, according to the Walla news site.
The 176 deaths, according to a tally provided by the Abraham Initiatives coexistence group, puts the community on a gruesome pace, far-outstripping the bloodshed in past years.
At this point in 2022, there had been 79 deaths, according to the group.
