Four killed in Jerusalem shooting attack, paramedics say


At least four people have been killed and five others wounded in a shooting attack in Jerusalem, paramedics say.

The Magen David Adom ambulance service identified the dead as one man in his 50s and three men in their 30s. Five people with gunshot wounds were taken to local hospitals, and several others were injured by broken glass, it added.

Israeli police said the attack took place at Ramot Junction – which is located on the north-western outskirts of the city. It added that “two terrorists were neutralised”.

Israel’s Channel 12 TV reported that the gunmen boarded a bus and opened fire before a soldier shot them. There was no immediate claim from any armed groups.
