Two members of the Abu Madigham family, a 17-year-old boy and a 30-year-old man, were shot and killed outside a shopping center in Rahat, southern Israel. Three others were injured in the attack, which police believe stemmed from a romantic dispute within the family. Authorities arrested two suspects and recovered a handgun believed to have been used in the shooting, though the crime scene was partially compromised after someone attempted to wash away evidence. The incident highlights a surge in violence within Arab communities, with 2025 on track to be the deadliest year yet and most homicide cases remaining unsolved. Local leaders have called for urgent action to address rampant arms trafficking and improve security in the city.
