Umm El Fahm Murder Victim's Name Released
The name of the Israeli-Arab killed in a shooting in the notoriously anti-Jewish village of Umm El Fahm is Hussam Salah Agabriyeh. Agabriyeh was 32 when he was gunned down by a fellow Arab attacker.
A second man was wounded in the shooting, which took place Monday night.
Violent attacks in the Arab sector are usually related to family feuds, Islamic honor-killings or suspicions that a resident has been helping Israel. Police said the motive for the latest shooting is still not clear.
