Palestinian Pedestrian Killed in Hit-and-Run in Negev Bedouin Area

A Palestinian pedestrian in his 30s was killed in a hit-and-run accident in an open area of the Bedouin diaspora in the Negev, near Kharbat al-Azq. Magen David Adom (MDA) teams declared the man dead at the scene and transported two additional injured individuals, aged 31 and 21, to Soroka Medical Center in Beersheba with moderate injuries. The police are actively searching for the driver responsible for the incident. Initial suspicions indicate the driver may be a shuttle driver transporting illegal workers (shabachim).
