Man shot and killed in Arraba; 2nd victim seriously injured

A man was shot and killed and a second injured in the northern town of Arraba, emergency services say.

Magen David Adom says paramedics declared the man’s death on the scene and took the second victim, aged around 18, to the Ziv Medical Center in Safed. He is said to be in serious condition.

Murder rates have spiked over the past three years, with 2025 on pace to be the deadliest yet. Members of the Arab community blame a host of problems, including insufficient policing, and government policies that have allowed organized crime to grow.
