Five people have been killed and seven seriously wounded in a shooting attack by Palestinian gunmen in Jerusalem, paramedics and police say.
Israel’s Magen David Adom ambulance service identified the dead as three men in their 30s, one woman in her 50s, and one man in his 50s. Nine people with gunshot wounds were taken to local hospitals along with three others injured by broken glass.
Israeli police said two “terrorists” opened fire towards a bus stop at Ramot Junction, on the city’s northern outskirts. A security officer and a civilian returned fire, and “neutralised” the attackers, it added.
There was no immediate claim from any armed groups, although Hamas praised the attack.
