No sign of a change in the murder rate in Israeli Arab society

The incident in Tel Sheva takes place only a few days after an Israeli Arab woman, Sahar Abu Hajaj, 48, was murdered in Lod. Hajaj's murder before the incident on Friday had brought the Israeli Arabic murder to death to 88 since the beginning of the year. Of the 88, five of them are women, including Hajaj, according to the Abraham initiatives.

A report by the Taub Center in February came to the conclusion that the murder rate in this company had increased to the most third -party talent in the developed world.
