A woman in her 40s was found stabbed to death in Beer Sheva overnight Sunday. Her husband, a man in his 40s, was arrested at the scene on suspicion of stabbing her. Paramedics attempted to save her life, transporting her to Soroka Hospital in critical condition, but she was pronounced dead upon arrival. Police have launched an investigation, gathering evidence and interviewing witnesses. The motive for the attack is believed to be criminal, and while the victim's family was known to welfare services, there were no prior reports of domestic violence.
In a separate case, the Central District Court in Lod sentenced Jason Ouda (Blaze), 34, of Bat Yam, to life imprisonment on Wednesday for the aggravated murder of Elena Granberg, 27, in Rehovot in 2022. The court also ordered Ouda to pay NIS 258,000 in compensation to Granberg's family. The sentencing document detailed the brutal nature of the crime, stating that Ouda attacked Granberg in a vehicle with a knife he had prepared in advance, inflicting over 10 stab wounds. He then moved her body to a secluded area, doused it with gasoline, and was about to set it on fire, all while her blood soaked his clothes and vehicle. The court noted that Ouda showed no mercy even after her death, removing identification and personal belongings, and that the murder stemmed from Granberg rejecting his advances, causing him frustration.
The Ministry of Labor, Social Affairs and Social Services is urging anyone experiencing distress due to domestic violence to contact the 118 hotline, which operates 24/7 and offers assistance in multiple languages.
