Two men were killed on Friday in separate criminal-violence incidents in northern Israel. The dead are Imad Agbaria, 51, a resident of Mushairfa in the Mount Eiron area, and Majed Sabih, 25, who was shot in Kafr Kana.

According to the article, the report about the incident near Mushairfa reached Magen David Adom at around 5:00 p.m. Rescue teams arrived to find a car on fire after an explosive device had been attached to it. Agbaria was evacuated in critical condition, along with his wife who was in the vehicle, to hospital. Doctors later declared him dead after failing to save his life, while his wife remains hospitalized.

A few hours later, Sabih was brought to a local clinic in Kafr Kana with penetrating gunshot wounds and transferred to the Italian Hospital in Nazareth. He died overnight.

Shortly before midnight, a man in his 20s was also brought to a local clinic in Tayibe with penetrating injuries. Magen David Adom paramedics treated him and evacuated him to Meir Hospital in serious condition. The Abraham Initiatives said that 129 Arabs have been killed since the start of 2026 in circumstances linked to crime and violence.
