An indictment has been filed against Ali Massweda, 28, for the murder of his partner and mother of his child, Yanina (Yunit) Rossinova, in their Haifa home. Massweda confessed to the act before a police informant in a detention cell, stating he planned the murder in advance due to a "toxic and violent" relationship. According to the indictment, Massweda stabbed Rossinova in the neck while their two-month-old son was in the apartment. He then attempted to conceal evidence by washing her body and his own in the shower.
Following the murder, Massweda carried Rossinova out of the apartment and called emergency services without revealing the details of the incident. Responding officers found her in the stairwell without a pulse and began resuscitation efforts, to which Massweda also joined to feign an attempt to save her. Rossinova was pronounced dead at Rambam Hospital. Initially, Massweda claimed Rossinova had attempted self-harm.
The indictment details that the murder occurred on the night of September 24-25. Massweda allegedly used a kitchen knife, causing severe damage to her windpipe and blood vessels, leading to massive bleeding. The prosecution's arrest request stated Massweda acted with "cold-bloodedness" and "cunning behavior" during and after the murder, indicating his dangerousness.
The motive for the murder is attributed to the couple's troubled relationship, exacerbated by friction between Rossinova and Massweda's family. After their son's birth, Massweda began suspecting Rossinova of infidelity and planning to leave him for another man.
Rossinova, who immigrated to Israel from Belarus, has no other family in the country. Her mother, residing in Belarus, is seeking custody of their infant grandson. "He is a part of her that remained with us, and today he is the most precious thing we have," she stated, also expressing hope that justice would be served. Representatives from the "Michal Sela Forum" are supporting the family.
