The suspect was evacuated in serious condition to Wolfson Medical Center in Holon to receive medical treatment, according to medical sources.

A majority of the dogs were microchipped, and many were found to have been killed by gunshots, police confirmed after forensic testing.

In the same incident, Jonathan Khouri, an 18-year-old Arab Christian resident of the city’s Hadar neighborhood, was killed, while a third young man was hospitalized and remains in serious condition.

The indictment came at the culmination of a year-long undercover investigation that began in July of 2025, after suspicion arose regarding the suspects using social media to recruit victims.

Roxana Guzman, director of crime news outlet Pulso Informativo del Sureste, was abducted from her home on June 2 after armed, masked men broke down the front door.

An Interpol red notice is a request for law enforcement to locate and provisionally arrest a suspect no matter where they are found. It is not an international arrest warrant.

Last week, celebrity news site TMZ.com reported receiving an email from someone claiming to know the identities of the abductors and to have video of the "main guy" involved in her kidnapping.

Officers from the Israel Police's Counterterrorism Unit (YAMAM) apprehended the suspect, while Shin Bet provided intelligence support to the forces, the statement said.

The girl's screams, clearly audible in the final seconds of a video documenting the drama, are heard by passing drivers, who realize something bad is unfolding and jump into action.
