01 · THE DISPATCH

The wave of killings in the Arab sector in Israel has accelerated sharply over the past day, with a sixth murder reported early Monday morning. The latest victim was killed in the town of Yafia (Yafi‘), in the Lower Galilee, according to Israeli media. The killing follows five murders in four separate locations on Sunday alone, as reported by The Zioneer — including a suspected car bomb near Bloomfield Stadium in Tel Aviv. The 2026 death toll in the Arab sector has now surpassed 138, an 8% increase over the same period last year (as reported Sunday by journalist Milen Mualem). Police have not yet made arrests in any of the cases.
