A series of shootings in recent hours have left two people dead and a teen girl injured.
Police say they have opened an investigation and are searching for suspects after a man in his 40s was shot to death in the central city of Lod.
The killing is the 110th suspected murder in the Arab community since the start of the year, according to the Abraham Initiatives. The pace of killings has nearly matched last year’s record-setting tally.
In the Arab town of Jat, the Magen David Adom paramedic service says it was unable to revive a woman in her 40s who died of wounds sustained in a shooting.
The circumstances of the shooting are not immediately known.
Hours earlier, a 15-year-old girl was taken to a hospital in moderate condition after being hit by a stray bullet in Haifa.
