Three shot to death in northern town of Abu Snan
Three people have been shot to death in the northern town of Abu Snan, according to Hebrew-language media reports.
Police are investigating the triple homicide as a domestic criminal matter, according to reports. There are no reports of arrests.
The killings are the latest to rock the Arab community, which has seen unprecedented levels of violence in recent years. They come just days after another triple murder in the Arab city of Umm al-Fahm.
The Abraham Initiatives NGO, which tracks crime stats in Arab society, said Sunday that 21 Arabs had been killed violently in January 2025 alone, more than double the total for the year before.
