A woman in her 30s was shot and killed today in Reineh, an Arab village just north of Nazareth, first responders say.

Paramedics found the victim without signs of life after having sustained several bullet wounds, Magen David Adom says. It appears that her body was located on the outskirts of town.

Police have launched an investigation into the incident. No arrests have yet been reported.

The slain woman is the latest person to fall prey to a violent crime wave besetting Arab cities and towns. With her death, 74 members of the Arab community have been killed in crime-related incidents since the start of the year, among them five women.
