Northern District police officers have arrested a cell of three suspects, residents of Tuba-Zangariyye aged 19, 20, and 23, on suspicion of involvement in a shooting incident and the throwing of a fragmentation grenade at a shopping complex near the town of Migdal.

The incident occurred on August 5, when the police emergency center received a report of a shooting and the throwing of a grenade, which fortunately did not detonate at the scene. Upon receiving the report, police deployed extensive roadblocks and began searching for two motorcycles seen fleeing the area.

During the pursuit, the motorcycles were identified near Kfar Deshe. Police later located the three suspects after they had switched to another vehicle in an attempt to continue evading capture, leading to their arrest. Following the investigation, the suspects were brought to court, and their detention was extended until today, August 11.
