Police have launched an investigation into a shooting incident that occurred overnight in the Arab town of Deir Hanna, located near Sakhnin in northern Israel, according to journalist Or Ravid (N12). Local reports indicate that a mother and her daughter, who were inside the building, were evacuated with moderate injuries. One suspect has been arrested in connection with the incident. The case is distinct from a recent shooting in Sakhnin itself, which The Zioneer reported last weekend — in that incident, suspects filmed themselves firing at a building, causing property damage but no casualties, and two arrests were made. It also differs from an earlier shooting in Jisr al-Zarqa, reported two weeks ago. Further details, including the motive and the identities of those involved, remain under investigation.
