- Police suspect the woman's husband killed her and then committed suicide.

A woman in her 40s was found dead in her Petah Tikva apartment on Monday morning, apparently murdered by her husband who then took his own life. The discovery was made by one of the couple's four children, who entered the living room and found her bleeding on the floor in critical condition. The child immediately called the police.
Paramedics arriving at the scene found the woman unconscious, without a pulse or breathing. They were forced to declare her dead at the location due to her fatal injuries. Initial findings suggest the husband attacked his wife from behind, stabbing her in the neck with what is now believed to be a butcher knife, not an axe as initially reported.
Following the attack, the husband reportedly left the family apartment on Yossef Sprinzak Street. Police launched a search for him, and he was found dead about an hour later in a nearby street. Authorities suspect he committed suicide.
The investigation into the incident, which has shaken the city, is ongoing as police continue to gather details about the couple's final moments.
