Man shot dead in northern city of Zarzir

A man in his 40s was shot dead in the northern city of Zarzir tonight, according to the police and medics.

According to local Arabic-language media, the victim’s name is Abdel-Moneim Jandawi.

First responder Amir Elisha says his team “saw the injured man unconscious, without a pulse and not breathing with penetrating wounds on his body” and eventually declared him dead at the scene.

Police have opened an investigation into the shooting and say the circumstances were criminal rather than terror-related.

Since the start of 2025, 18 Arab Israeli citizens have been killed in violent incidents, amid a years-long epidemic of crime in the community.
