Jerusalem, 19 January, 2026 (TPS-IL) — Two Israeli citizens residing in Ramla, Chalaf Muhammad Hussein Abu Jamm and Mudi Akram Taleb Ghanem, were arrested in recent weeks for setting vehicles on fire and shooting at an occupied residential building in the city of Ramla, where Jewish families reside in the city.
An investigation by the Shin Bet (Israel’s anti-terror General Security Service) revealed that the two deliberately carried out the shooting and the arson with the aim of sending a message to the security forces against the enforcement being carried out in the city, and in order to instill fear in them.
Today, an indictment was filed against the two in the Lod District Court.
Ramla is a mixed Jewish and Arab city known for being low-income in nature and for being a center of reputed criminal gangs.
