Soldier indicted for murder

The southern district prosecution files an indictment against Omar Abu Sbeit, an IDF soldier, accusing him of murdering a man in January 2015 in a case of mistaken identity.

He, along with another man who has yet to be apprehended, were allegedly involved in a fight and then later thought they had spotted one of the men they had fought with.

Abu Sbeit then opened fire on the car with his IDF-issued M-16 rifle and fled, the indictment says.
