Father and son seriously injured in shooting in Um al-Fahm

SadaNews - A man and his son were seriously injured this Thursday morning in a shooting that targeted their car in the city of Um al-Fahm.

The occupation police claimed they opened an investigation into the circumstances of the crime, without announcing any arrests.

217 Arab casualties since the beginning of the year

This comes amid an unprecedented and dangerous escalation in violent incidents and murders in the Arab community, which have resulted in 217 fatalities since the beginning of the year, alongside the complicity and inaction of the police in performing their role in combating crime and ensuring safety and security for Arab citizens.

Data indicates that 182 people were killed by gunfire, of whom 105 victims were under the age of thirty, including four children who had not yet reached the age of eighteen and 20 women. Additionally, 11 murder cases were recorded by the police.

These shocking figures reflect the extent of the escalation of violence and crime in the Arab community, against the backdrop of the Israeli police's complicity and their failure to perform their role in combating crime and holding criminals accountable.
