A 28-year-old man died on Saturday night in Yavne after being shot, with initial reports indicating the shooter was his 21-year-old brother, who works as a security guard. The young man was rushed to Kaplan Hospital in critical condition, undergoing resuscitation efforts, but his death was pronounced shortly after arrival. The incident occurred when the brother, who was apparently handling his service weapon, accidentally discharged a round that struck the victim.
