Five people were murdered at a car wash complex in Yafia on Thursday. The massacre plunged violence in Arab society to a blacker-than-black peak.

Three days of mourning were declared in the community and businesses went on strike. "We don't know who's against whom. We're in trouble, we feel that the state doesn't take care of us. We don't have a father," says Hani Marjieh, uncle of murdered Na'im and Rami, 15.
