Two young men were gunned down Friday night in Isfiya in northern Israel.
Media reports indicate the shooting took place on a main road in the Druze-majority town, hundreds of meters from the local police station.
The two, aged 24 and 26, were rushed in critical condition to a local hospital but died of their injuries.
Police at the scene opened an investigation.
Earlier, in Kafr Yasif, northeast of Haifa, a man in his 30s was shot dead and four others were wounded in a shooting at a local store. Two of the wounded were in serious condition, including the murdered man’s three-year-old son. The gunman escaped the scene.
