The Israel Police says forces have detained six suspects in the fatal shooting of a four-year-old boy in the northern village of Bir al-Maksur.
Two of them, aged 34 and 35, have subsequently been arrested and taken into custody. Police have not said what happened with the remaining four detainees.
“This is a shocking incident of a toddler hit by gunfire from criminals using firearms with such ease, without any respect for human life, causing such a terrible tragedy,” police say in a statement.
“We will do everything to reach the gunmen.”
