Jerusalem District police have launched an investigation into the death of a 75-year-old woman whose body was found Wednesday night in a storage unit near the city's Sacher Park.

A 70-year-old suspect has been arrested on suspicion of involvement in the incident. The suspect will be brought before a judge on Wednesday, and police will request to extend his detention.

Initial findings indicate that both the victim and the suspect are Jewish, and a nationalist motive has been ruled out.
