Lilly Ben Ami, CEO and founder of the Michal Sela Forum, told Ynet studio that she is in contact with the family of Leah Malka, whose former partner is suspected of murdering her by detonating an explosive device in her car. Ben Ami said: "The family reached out to me, they are devastated. Leah was the backbone of the family. The parents also ask that the public come to console them. They are sitting shiva in Bat Yam." She added: "This is the first time we are seeing an infiltration of organized crime tools into violence against women. Leah's murder should concern the Ministry of National Security. We at the Michal Sela Forum measured a 500% increase in the murder of Jewish women with firearms."
