Tel Aviv Police Arrest Two Jaffa Residents Over October Shooting Incident
Tel Aviv police arrested two Jaffa residents in their 20s for a serious shooting incident on Yefet Street that critically injured a 34-year-old man last month.
Investigators from the Central Unit (YAMAR) of the Tel Aviv Police District arrested two Jaffa residents in their 20s early Monday morning on suspicion of involvement in a shooting incident that left a 34-year-old man seriously injured.
The shooting took place on October 3, 2026, at approximately 7:30 PM on Yefet Street in Jaffa. The victim sustained serious injuries and was rushed to the Wolfson Medical Center in Holon for emergency medical treatment. Following the incident, Tel Aviv District Commander Superintendent Haim Sargrof held a special situation assessment and transferred the investigation to the district's Central Unit.
Over the past month, YAMAR investigators deployed advanced technological tools and conducted extensive investigative procedures to track down the suspects. Following the gathering of sufficient evidence, undercover detectives apprehended the two men. They were transferred to YAMAR offices for interrogation, and police plan to bring them before the Tel Aviv Magistrate's Court to request an extension of their detention.
