Man shot to death in Lod, as ongoing bloodletting claims 7th victim in days

A 50 year old man has been shot to death in Lod, medics and the Abraham Initiatives organization say, marking the seventh slaying in the Arab community since Saturday.

In the southern community of Segev Shalom, a 30-year-old man has been rushed to a hospital in serious condition after being shot, the Magen David Adom rescue service says.

According to the Abraham Initiatives, 39 members of the Arab community have been killed in violent circumstances so far this year. At this point in 2023, which saw violent deaths among Arabs skyrocket to record levels, there had been 30 killings.
