A Be'er Sheva Magistrate's Court on Friday extended the remand of two IDF officers and a police officer by four days for their alleged involvement in an attempted murder about a month ago in southern Israel, as reported by N12's Itai Gal-On. The three suspects — one of whom is a colonel — are accused of planning and carrying out an ambush. The case was first reported on June 9, when the suspects were initially arrested; earlier reports indicated the shooting was a family-ordered attack. The court's extension suggests the investigation is continuing to gather evidence. A publication ban on the suspects' names remains in place.
