Ashkelon court extends remand of three daycare workers suspected of abusing infants

An Ashkelon magistrate court extended the detention of three daycare workers suspected of systematic abuse of infants aged 8 months to 3 years at two private daycare centers. The judge cited video evidence and injuries. The center's manager was released under restrictive conditions.

Four caregivers from two private daycare centers in Ashkelon were arrested on suspicion of abusing toddlers aged one to three. During the investigation, videos documenting her actions were shown to one of the suspects, and when asked to explain, she replied: 'I got tired of the work'. The judge ruled that this was a series of incidents and not a one-time event, and extended the detention of three of the suspects. Later, a fourth suspect was arrested. The investigation continues.
