5 injured in a shooting in Kafr Kanna

Today, Saturday, 5 people were injured, two of them seriously, after they were subjected to a shooting in the town of Kafr Kanna.


In Kafr Kanna, the injured, members of one family, were shot by masked men while they were in the yard of a house, according to local sources.


According to Magen David Adom, the condition of a 55-year-old man and a 29-year-old woman was described as serious, while the condition of a 17-year-old man was described as moderate, and two other injured were light.


Medical staff provided initial treatment to the injured, and then they were quickly transferred to Buria Hospital and the English Hospital in Nazareth for treatment.


The number of murder victims committed in the Arab community since the beginning of this year until now has reached 148, which is an unprecedented record.


Murder crimes in Arab society have become commonplace over the past years, in light of the police’s failure to play its role in eliminating organized crime, amid indications of the complicity of the Israeli security services with criminal organizations.


This comes amidst the criminals' feeling of impunity, noting that most of the crimes are related to work in usury and the black market, and settling scores between criminal gangs.
