The Times of Israel reported that Jalal Amash was shot on Monday evening while he was in a grocery store there.
A few weeks ago, the e-newspaper warned that this year’s deaths threaten to equal or surpass the figures recorded in 2021 when 120 members of the Arab community were killed in this nation, a record number in the country’s recent history.

Several studies stressed that high unemployment rates, poverty, and other social factors are also the causes of the scourge.
