Grenade Attack on Northern Israel Restaurant Kills One, Injures Three

A grenade attack on a restaurant in Kafr Mand, northern Israel, on Saturday, November 14th, resulted in one fatality and three injuries. Unknown assailants threw a fragmentation grenade at the establishment, located approximately 16 kilometers northwest of Nazareth. The deceased is a woman between 50 and 60 years old, who succumbed to her wounds despite resuscitation efforts. Three other individuals, two men and one woman around 50 years old, sustained moderate shrapnel injuries, while another person suffered minor injuries. The injured were transported to Rambam Hospital in Haifa and the Italian Hospital in Nazareth.

Israeli police and border guards quickly apprehended three suspects in connection with the bombing. A search operation involving specialized equipment led to the discovery of a hidden vehicle believed to have been used by the perpetrators. Police Commissioner Dani Levi and the commander of the Northern District visited the scene and were briefed on the investigation and arrests. The Inspector General ordered the deployment of all available resources to apprehend any remaining accomplices.

Investigators are operating under the preliminary theory that the attack was motivated by a blood feud or criminal dispute. Authorities suspect the attackers were targeting a specific individual, failed to find him, and subsequently threw the grenade at the restaurant owned by his relative.
