Police arrested three members of the same family, residents of Basmat Tab'un, on Monday on suspicion of firing shots and throwing a stun grenade in Isfiya several days ago. The suspects were located at a compound where they were staying and will be brought to court in the coming days for detention hearings.

A violent incident involving live fire and a stun grenade occurred in the village of Isfiya earlier this week, prompting an immediate investigation to identify those responsible.

During police searches, officers arrived at the compound where the suspects were hiding. Three relatives, all residents of Basmat Tab'un, were arrested at the scene on suspicion of participating in the attack.

Police intend to request an extension of the detention for two of the suspects for investigative purposes. Regarding the third suspect, the court initially ordered his release, but police filed an appeal. The appeal was granted, and the detention of the third suspect was extended until Wednesday, August 26.
