Ten youths suspected of belonging to a violent gang which randomly attacked and stabbed people in Ashdod were arrested on Monday on suspicion of attempted murder.
In June 2011, the suspects, five adults and five minors, allegedly stabbed and injured two people on an Ashdod beach, injuring one man mortally and a second man critically, according to police.
