Israeli Police Arrest Four More Suspects in Eldar Dayan Death Investigation

Israeli police investigating the death of Eldar Dayan have arrested four additional suspects connected to a fight that preceded his disappearance and death. The suspects, who had previously been questioned but not detained, were taken into custody by the Sharon District Unit of the Central Unit in the Central District following new developments and evidence in the case. These arrests bring the total number of suspects held in connection with the case to six.

Two of Dayan's friends, already in custody on suspicion of involvement in his death, remain detained. The four newly arrested individuals are suspected only of involvement in the fight prior to Dayan's disappearance, not of causing his death. The police are continuing to investigate all circumstances surrounding Dayan's death, focusing on the fight and its connection to the events that followed.

The four suspects will be brought before the court where the police will request an extension of their detention to continue the investigation. Authorities have not yet disclosed specific details about the charges against Dayan's two friends or the exact link between the fight and his death. The investigation is ongoing under the Central Unit of the Sharon District Police.
