A woman and her two children were killed, at dawn on Monday, by her husband, in the occupied city of Al-Taybeh.

According to the Hebrew website Ynet, Baraa Jaber Masarwa (26 years old), and her two children Amir (two years old) and Adam (six months old) were stabbed to death by the head of the family.

According to the Hebrew site, the mother was stabbed to death in the kitchen, while he stabbed his two children while they were sleeping in their bed.

The Israeli police said that it is investigating the circumstances of the incident, while the Taybeh municipality refused to link it to the usual murders in the Arab sector, considering what happened as a humanitarian catastrophe.
