The Haifa District Court sentenced two brothers to life imprisonment plus an additional 15 years for the murder of their mother, Talia Khatib, under a plea agreement. According to the indictment, the mother had separated from the brothers' father and was hiding from her family due to threats over her lifestyle. A neighbor who quarreled with the victim revealed her location to the sons, who then planned and carried out the murder, with one brother shooting her seven times at close range.
