A 50-year-old woman shot this morning in Qalansawe has died of her wounds, Israeli media report, confirming a double murder together with a 62-year-old man. Police say the attack appears to be a blood feud tied to an ongoing family conflict; searches for suspects are underway.
The shooting occurred around 08:10 Thursday morning in the central Israeli city of Qalansawe, when a man, 62, and a woman, 50, were shot while in their vehicle driving to work. Medical teams pronounced the man, identified by Israeli media as Khalid Jamal, dead at the scene. The woman was evacuated in critical condition but later succumbed to her wounds, police said.
As The Zioneer reported at 07:50, a man was killed and a woman critically wounded in what police described as a blood feud. The earlier bulletin (06:27) noted the man was in his 60s and the woman critically wounded. The confirmation of the woman's death now updates the toll to a double homicide.
Police have opened an investigation and are searching for suspects. The preliminary assessment cites a long-running family conflict as the motive. No arrests have been reported.
