Two young men were seriously injured in a shooting incident that occurred on Tuesday evening in the Bedouin town of Shaqib al-Salam in the Negev. One of the victims, approximately 20 years old, sustained critical, life-threatening injuries, while the second, aged 38, suffered moderate wounds. Both were transported to Soroka Medical Center in Be'er Sheva.
Magen David Adom reported that its emergency center in the Negev received a call at 9:16 PM regarding a young man arriving at a local clinic in Shaqib al-Salam, apparently a victim of violence suspected to be a shooting. Medical teams provided treatment before transferring him to the hospital. The paramedic who responded described the young man as unconscious, without a pulse or breathing, requiring resuscitation efforts including chest compressions, artificial respiration, and medication.
Later, at 9:21 PM, Magen David Adom received another report concerning the 38-year-old man, also injured in the same incident. He too was taken to Soroka Medical Center with penetrating wounds, his condition assessed as moderate.
The police have launched an investigation into the shooting. Initial suspicions suggest the incident stems from a criminal dispute between families. Officers from the Shaqib al-Salam police station were dispatched to the scene to collect evidence and are conducting extensive searches to apprehend those involved.
